Samia

Those roots explain a lot about how Samia arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Blondshell, Indigo De Souza, Maggie Rogers, Julien Baker and MUNA, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Bartees Strange and Briston Maroney, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
