Following the release of Cat Clyde’s single “Mama Said,” the Ontario native has shared the gritty and blues-tinged track “The Meadow.” There is a mischievous and empowered center to Clyde’s new single. The stomping naked drums of “The Meadow” conjure the feeling of a maddening dance circle, something of the likes of Where The Wild Things Are. Accordingly, Clyde’s images are visceral and untamed. Her vocals are pronounced and clear. “You were born in a river that was made to take you under/ the rocks made jagged just to cut you up/ And I can see all the blood you swallow while you’re singing into bottles,” she sings. Listen below.
