Laura Pieri - Daughter of Demeter

“Daughter of Demeter” introduces the musical and visual world of the forthcoming 4-track EP, by multidisciplinary and visual artist, Laura Pieri

Born in São Paulo, Brazil, where she lived until the age of 16, Laura Pieri always dreamed of being a pop star. In the year 2014, she moved to America and split her time between New York and Los Angeles to further her education and simultaneously pursue a music career. Inspired by a wide array of artistes, like Billie Eilish, Prince and Michael Jackson, Pieri hopes to blend her pop influences with her Brazilian roots, while using her songwriting to connect with others.

Her latest song, “Daughter of Demeter” paints a vivid picture of a powerful and mysterious figure, invoking imagery of ancient goddesses and mythical realms. The lyrics speak of pure awakening and transformation, of laying offerings at the feet of a divine being and learning from her wisdom.

The song’s chorus, with its deeply haunting melody and commanding vocals, conveys a sense of strength and authority, while the imagery of a garden, shadows, and smoke adds to the ethereal and otherworldly atmosphere of the song. During the chorus, the track gives way to a wave of sound in a powerful and moving fashion. It continues this pattern, adding layers of voices and instruments into a final chorus that whisks you away into an expansive world of life and death.

In a moment of self-reflection, the climax of the song forces you to come face-to-face with the full weight of what Pieri must be feeling. No matter how much it seems the universe might want to see you fail, it is important to never let it win. This could mean fighting back as hard as you can, this could mean making a compromise or breaking a promise. In any live scenario though, you must continue to support and believe in yourself, regardless of the circumstances. The track plays to her strengths, showing off her dynamic vocals, edgy lyrics, and unrelenting style.

Her forthcoming 4-track EP, Frankie, came to be when Pieri was at the point of almost giving up on her career. Motivated by what her farewell to the industry might sound like, the story of Frankie, a resilient woman reclaiming her power, was born. In an EP that cycles through the great, the good, the bad and the ugly of self-discovery, she rediscovers and ultimately reconnects with her true voice.

Overall, “Daughter of Demeter” is an empowering anthem that celebrates the divine feminine and the forces of nature. This energetic and mouth-watering composition is now available for streaming on all major music platforms. Go listen now!
