About Motherland
Lia Kuri’s newest offering, 2024's Motherland, is not only her first solo release in two years, but it is also her debut full-length album. Having released two EP’s while fronting her band Afternoon Bike Ride and collaborating with electronic artists such as Apashe and Imanu, she took 2023 to build and finalize Motherland, an electronic concept album about climate change and maternalization.
With multiple family-related undertakings throughout her twenties (from caring for her mother with cancer to caring for her father with dementia), she almost shelved this solo project until she received funding from the Canadian government. We are grateful this album is seeing the light of day. And what a light it is. Throughout the ten tracks, Lia provide's heartfelt downtempo electronica and dreamy synth pop. A mystical voice of sincere urgency and a message that needs to be heard.
