Miami-raised, Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter, Rachel Mintz is preparing to release a new EP this year. She just dropped the first single from the album, “Silly Weight.” The lo-fi synth sound is reminiscent of Atom and His Package with a hint of the Bangles in the pop/rock songwriting. It is an incredibly catchy song with important lyrics about shedding things “we focus way too much of our energy on” says Mintz. “Things like social media and consumerism that are ultimately meaningless and don’t serve us at all.”
