Seldom has gentleness sounded so energetic and vulnerability so strong. LOTA projects approachable stories under the sign of the zeitgeist onto spherical sound surfaces - they deal with interpersonal relationships, escapism and longing, paired with the attempt to break free from social conventions. Behind the mysterious project name - which is deliberately kept gender neutral - is the Cologne singer, songwriter and producer Lotta Holtei. Inspired by indie-pop influences and electronic LoFi elements, mystical sounds meet distinctive beats, contrasted by calm piano sounds and soulful lyrics. Her soft and haunting voice takes you into a spherical world of sound. The English lyrics are bluntly honest and deal with topics relevant to society as a whole, such as depression, ideals of beauty or feminism,without losing any of their lyrical sophistication.
