MUMBAI : Multi-disciplinary musician and producer Lauren Mia is preparing tirelessly for the release of her first full body of work RE:BIRTH, set for release on November 14th, 2023. The album’s sophomore single “Ceremony”, released on October 12th, 2023, is where RE:BIRTH’s themes of self-discovery, healing and the divine feminine take flight.
“Ceremony” is Inspired by Lauren’s own experience with sacred Plant Medicines. Intended to recreate the experience of ‘ceremony’, the song was designed to take listeners on a journey through the essence of what Plant Medicine ceremony means to her. From the peaks and valleys, trials and tribulations – the most beautiful part of ‘ceremony’ is in fact the surrender and release.
“Ceremony” is dedicated to all of those who have participated in, or facilitated these experiences and ceremonies that furthered her pursuits in self-awakening. “My intention with this track was to bring forth the feelings, frequencies, sounds, instruments and overall experience that one endures as a process of the Plant Medicine ceremony – it is not always pleasant, but the results are astronomically profound in the most positive way possible,” Lauren shares.
