Have you ever wanted to run away to a place you’ve never been before? Are you intrigued by the unknown? In a new song by MVTTHIAS, he talks about a sort of utopia for outsiders. There’s no one there to bother him, the people there have the same skin, and the sun never sets. Wherever it is, it sounds like an artist community in the redwoods of California. If I’m invited, I’m in! Once upon a time, I dated an ‘outsider’. He adored everything about nature. Nor was he like the other people in his hometown. We loved each other, but I grew up in the city, so my relationship with nature didn’t exist until he came into the picture. ‘Outsiders’ takes me back to that time. Check out the chill new song featuring Boston’s own Michael Christmas. It’s exclusively out now through GRUNGECAKE.


When you’re done with that, stream his latest EP: I Forgot Your Flowers. It came out on Valentine’s Day (February 14).
