After Kardia, released in 2015, Mourah is finally back with a new album, Euphony, his third opus which will be released on January 28th. This album was composed and produced a few months before the world was hit by a pandemic that delayed so many projects in the art world. In the meantime, two previous singles, Vagabond and Hashtag Notalways, had given a glimpse of the artistic direction assumed for this new musical adventure.
To support the release of the album, a third single, This is the day, is a manifesto for freedom and self-assertion, but also for human nature, which seems to forget that it comes from the nature around it. The latter is so neglected today that it is in danger of collapsing and, as a result, of endangering future generations. Musically, Mourah serves up a pop-soul instrumentation anchored to the earth where his clear voice takes on a higher dimension. A final guitar solo evokes this flight and an individual emancipation, a return to the roots of nature as well.
The video is constructed like a dream set somewhere in Brazil. From a station platform used for our daily work obligations, suddenly a journey of colours and emotions takes hold of the character. Thought and imagination are wonderful vehicles for the most exquisite escapades.

Much Love & Peace,
Lyrics:
Little bird
Was in a cage
Wanted to break free from it
Find a subtle way
To fly through the golden bars
Little bird
Felt so much rage
Could no longer stand the bullshit
Who and why obey?
Passersby heard her singing to the stars:
“This is the day
Iʼm finally gonna own myself
This is my day
Bless my new life
This is the day
Bless my new self
My wings will take me To my destiny”
She was brave
And had some nerve
To go on fasting for eight days
She got thinner than ever
Just enough to sneak through the bars
All that she gave
Sheʼll get in return
Listen to her singing, giving praise
Flying over the world affairs afar:
“This is the day
Iʼm finally gonna own myself
This is my day
Bless my new life
This is the day
This is my day ”
Little bird's cheering up
Flying closer to the sun
Closer to the sun
Little bird's healing from the past
With new found freedom
New found freedom
And she goes...
