US artist Christine Sako release indie-pop gem ‘Coda’

Christine Sako, aka an LGBTQ+ icon and singer-songwriter on a mission to change indie-pop forever, is destined for your playlist.

Back with indie-pop infused contender Coda, Christine had this to say about the release, Coda” is about the experience of having a person come back into your life and re-open a chapter in a book you thought was already well-read and closed.

This reopening turns into re-writing of sorts – as emotions, conversations, and places are all revisited. It can feel like the revived relationship is being transformed into something new, or at least different, something that maybe this time will last.

But none of these changes change the outcome. Instead, they end up being a temporary distraction from the inevitable retelling of the same story. The central tension of the song is on the one hand,  being tired and wanting to move on and on the other,  feeling compelled to relive history as it repeats itself.

In spite of the desire to let go, there is underlying friction, a tugging in the direction opposite of freedom. It’s this conflicted feeling that results in pleading with the other party to “give it a rest,” since the strength to break the pattern on one’s own isn’t quite there yet.”

Musically endearing and everything you’d expect from a Christine Sako tune, “Coda” is best described as immersive and a refreshing pop number in today’s hectic industry.
