Seersha’s “Changes” is a delicate jewel box of a song that celebrates the limits of human life. It’s got the gossamer feel of Kacey Musgraves, the affecting witchiness of Chan Marshall, and features stylistic nods to legacy artists like Skeeter Davis and Mama Cass. But what makes this song so poignant is its quiet confidence. Seersha’s poetic lyrics are nudged lightly forward with acoustic guitar, celeste, and minimal drums. “Feels like we’re spinning faster / I don’t need ever after / please just one more night,” she declares in whispered reverie. All in all, it’s a perfect track to accompany the wistful air of these just-chilly-enough fall nights.
Directed and edited by Weston Manders, the video tells the story of a midnight Bacchanalia. There’s a banquet table decked out with candelabras and figures dressed in neo-Roman finery with touches of stag horns and laurel wreaths. Throughout the clip, Seersha enigmatically poses and sings in a makeshift throne as she plays host to the evening’s revelry. In the end, change is inevitable—birth, love, death, loss—but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t take time to slow dance with a mysterious stranger in a dark forest clearing.
