Have you ever wondered which subway train is best to cry on? New York three-piece outfit ALMA has — and over the course of their debut effort MOSAIC seeks to humanize New Amsterdam’s disparate parts into a collection of indie pop tracks charting their respective relationships with the city.
It felt like an ambitious concept for a debut — but it didn’t arise intentionally. We talked about its creation, feeling far from home (yet close at the same time), how water became a recurring motif throughout these dozen tracks, the intangible “spirit” that moves Alba, Melissa, and Lillie as artists, and their intention to stage MOSAIC as a live theatrical performance.
