Today, Mereki released her new holiday song "I'll Be Yours Tonight (Merry Christmas)". The track was written by Mereki, Joshua Moriarty (Miami Horror), Dhani Harrison and Chris Taylor (Grizzly Bear), and produced by Chris Taylor in his Echo Park studio.
It's an honest tune with haunting lyrics about spending the holidays alone, reflecting on time passed with a former lover. The bittersweet love story makes for a fresh dose of reality amongst the slew of typical sing-alongs covered time and time again by modern artists. With this song, Mereki continues to pave her own path in the music scene; one of self-awareness, that confidently rides the waves of life's ups and downs with emotional consciousness.
In November, Mereki released the new EP Beach, which features four new pop tracks, including the single "French Kissing", recorded in 528hz frequency, known as the healing tone, as well as "Got It All", "Friend Again" and the contemplative, "It Will"; a mantra about living in the present and letting go. Listen to Beach here.
Mereki recently finished supporting Dhani Harrison and Nikolai Fraiture of The Strokes new project, Summer Moon, on tour. She's also featured on Harrison's new albumIN///PARALLEL on the tracks "London Water" and "Poseidon." In addition to her current solo work, she has lent her voice to such musical acts as Goldroom and HOLYCHILD, among others. In early 2018, fans can look forward to a new music video and more touring.
