We all have things that root us into the earth. That can be yoga, hiking, exercise, and spirituality. Whatever it is, Kai Karilove reminds the listener to embrace those things. “Mind of Athena” brims with brassy horns, throat-throttling drums, and a sky-tearing vocal that’s to die for. But within its intricated musical layers, you’ll uncover lyrics that encourage you—no, push you to the edge—to uncover what it is for you. “Something about you keeps me alive,” she sings. It’s that declaration that fuels her, propels her, and grounds her.
