Alex Henry Foster and Momoka Release New Single “Under a Luxuriant Sky”
Singer-songwriter Alex Henry Foster has revealed the song “Under a Luxuriant Sky,” which features Momoka, from his new album, ‘Kimiyo.’
Today, Alex Henry Foster and Momoka share their much anticipated LP Kimiyo. To celebrate its release, they share the lyric video for “Under a Luxuriant Sky.”
Says Foster:
“Some songs are written long before you’re even emotionally disposed to welcome their liberating nature, to abandon yourself in their enfranchising essence. ‘Under a Luxuriant Sky’ is one of them. It slowly surfaces throughout what feels like an endless journey of turbulence, delicately enlightening a path of self-acceptance, gently lying its hopeful benevolence at your sorrowful feet to shine your way home… Wherever home may be.”
Says Foster about the LP:
“I have always been looking for a pretext or an excuse to work with Momoka. She’s got a very unique spirit, and she’s a very inspiring and insightful person. We have a common view about life in general and spirituality in particular, but most of all, she is a fantastic artist for whom I have the utmost admiration.
“When it became obvious to me that I would be in no way capable of singing or speaking on the songs we had sketched, Momoka was in my opinion the only person able to transcend the project’s spirit. The poetry of Voyage à la Mer was to be the core holding the whole project together, but I wanted Momoka to make her own interpretation of the lyrical undercurrent and to express herself in her native tongue, so she wouldn’t have to be my voice or try to emulate what my words might convey. We set the canvas and laid down the colour palettes, but it was for her to express herself and be the painting.”
Alex Henry Foster has crafted four different creative entities; the albums Kimiyo and A Measure of Space and Sounds, the film Voyage à la Mer, and the in-public conversations and live musical improvisation affair Of Flashes and Other Currents, all due to be released over the span of 2024.
