Lolita Lynne and the swirling inner storm of "Leave Me Alone" (Official Video)

 











"leave me alone, I'm in my head again..."


Emotional entanglements, physical entanglements. While listening to singer-songwriter, artist, musician Lolita Lynne's broken seduction "Leave Me Alone" I thought of how getting wrapped up in someone can be so exhilarating and addictive but in the wrong hands can be equally, claustrophobic and absolutely suffocating too. Amid stair stepping guitar falls, percussive beats and chill drums, tactile bass lines, swirling keys and evocative sax lines, Lynne's drop dead gorgeous vocal aesthetic is full of questions and emotional wanderlust. When a surprising guitar lead drops like a dirty storm of sustain the song shifts from a sort of hybrid of lounge rock, tropicalia and jazz pop (drenched in psychedelia) into something more post punk. In totality, "Leave Me Alone" is hard to describe but even harder to let go. Lolita Lynne's song about getting lost inside her head is now lost inside mine.


Lolita Lynne (vocals, guitar) co-wrote "Leave Me Alone" with Robert Williams and manifests her divergent art out of Austin, Texas with Taylor Turner (bass), Robert Williams (guitar, keys, beats), Rishi Bajekal (drums), Caleb McKelvey (guitar), Walter Nichols (keys, sax) with assistance from Aubry Hayes (background vox).

A man stands too close to you. His hand moves frantically to inflame the nonconsensual conversation. The room erupts into inebriated chaos as WAP unleashes its deafening roar. He yells louder, directly into your external auditory canal. He yearns to make you understand the injustice of the people who "think they understand modular synths". You try to leave, but his passion for ever more esoteric modulation matrixes overpowers your puny attempts to escape.

You turn around to assess an exit strategy. A young women vomits on herself before taking another shot of blue raspberry digestif. A man attempts to fight another in slow motion as his motor skills leave him. The depravity! The animalism! Do you have work tomorrow? You have to leave immediately.

You collapse to the ground. Flailing about in an intoxicated rage.

Finally screaming your inner truths:

"LEAVE ME ALONE! I'LL TEAR YOU LIMB FROM LIMB!”

"Also has anyone seen my phone?”You turn around to access an exit strategy. A young women vomits on her self before taking another shot of a blue raspberry "digestive". A man attempts to fight another in slow motion as his motor skills leave him. The Depravity! The Animalism! Do you have work tomorrow? You have to leave immediately.

You collapse to the ground. Flailing about in in an intoxicated rage! Finally screaming your inner truths!

LEAVE ME ALONE I'LL TARE YOU LIMB FROM LIMB!
Also has anyone seen my phone?
