Brooklyn-via-Tel Aviv experimental songwriter, producer, and visual artist Tesha is announcing her second EP, Growing Pain II, and today, is releasing the first intensely emotional, dreamlike single. Unlike a typical single, "See So Good" captivates the listener with its striking rawness and minimalism, a glimpse into the off-kilter beauty of Tesha's inner world.
Tesha explains the emotions behind the track: "It's about letting go. It's about that moment when you're sinking at the bottom of the ocean and you know your end is near, but you smile and you release all the pain because you don't have anything else to do." Tesha wrote this song after the death of her mother, Amit, who was a hero in her life and a peace fighter. "We ourselves die multiple times in life, we shed our skin emotionally like soul-snakes; my mom died physically, the only final death that there is as far as the eye can see, and I died emotionally. Losing somebody you love so much, the pain is unbearable, but this moment is inevitable and it made me grow. I wanted people to know that even the worst fates can turn into something positive and this is why I wrote this EP. Pain is a growing mechanism if you're hurting...you're growing into something bigger."
Growing Pain II will be released December 7, and New Yorkers will be able to preview the new material along with the old at Coney Island Baby in the Lower East Side on November 2 - Tesha will be playing with Mau, Jae Luna, and Toobin. For more, see below!

Known as TESHA ????, the forward thinking singer-songwriter and producer creates self empowering, ruminative and equality driven experimental electro-acoustic focused on the wonders and unknowns of life. Born in Israel and raised playing her mother's living room piano, she drew inspiration from the likes of Laurie Anderson, Kate Bush and the classical era. After the loss of both parents during adolescence-early 20's, her purpose was ignited and soon dedicated her life to music. A year later, she moved to Brooklyn, piecing together hours of self-taught vocals and experimentation with synth production. Embracing the unknown, she transcribed the visuals delivered from her dreams. An intrinsically beautiful place where form, rawness, vulnerability and unconditional love runs free. While in this place, she learned to overcome many of life's obstacles. Walking forward, and coming back with treasures from dark recesses, sculpting the framework of her self-released debut EP, Growing Pain II.
