Taste Test: Carmanah celebrates femininity with new song, ‘Mountain Woman’
The folk-pop band cherish the raw power of femininity.
Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones
There’s an electricity in femininity. It’s hard to pindown or clearly define. Yet folk-pop band Carmanah‘s “Mountain Woman” comes damn close in sculpting out the raw power, practically warrior-like, with a bluesy, startlingly swampy presentation. “Mountain woman, be not ashamed,” vocalist Laura Mina Mitic reminds the listener. Society dictates femininity is somehow a shameful act that should be hidden away and avoided at all costs. But that’s simply fake news. “You’re quiet but you’re so loud / The rhythm under your feet / There’s always someone speaking in whispers,” she calls through a thick forest. Mitic’s voice can pierce through the cosmos, so it’s no wonder it carries such an imposing habit within such a organic frame.
