Moli announces new single 'Funeral'
Now London-based, Belgium-raised pop sensation Moli returns with her poignant new single ‘Funeral’, set for independent release on June 5th. Co-written with her long-time collaborator Michael Ochs and produced by Johannes Roemer, ‘Funeral’ stands as a heartfelt exploration of past relationships and the lingering memories that follow.
Speaking on the single, Moli said - “‘Funeral’ is a song I wrote back in 2021 in Berlin with my dear friend and co-writer Michael Ochs. We decided to strip everything back and write something on the piano, leading to the idea of a funeral – a slightly morbid but intriguing concept about who would actually show up at your funeral. It’s a metaphor for holding on to the memory of people who were once close but have drifted apart. The song resonated deeply with me and every time I performed it on tour, the audience’s reaction confirmed its special place in my heart. Working with producer Johannes Roemer in Vienna, we transformed it from a simple ballad to a powerful, emotion-filled track. Releasing this independently is both scary and exciting, but it’s the music I truly want to share, without any compromises. I hope people connect with it as much as I do.”
‘Funeral’ follows Moli’s acclaimed releases, including her nostalgic single ‘It’s Not My Fault’ produced by Jungle’s Tom McFarland, and her striking PMS anthem ‘Bring On The Rain’. These releases have garnered praise from The Line of Best Fit, Noctis, Enfnts Terribles, PopJustice, Luna Collective, and more.
