About SAMIA
Bovine excision, a mysterious phenomenon involving the bloodless surgical removal of cattle
organs, serves as the eerie inspiration for the opening track of Samia's third album, aptly titled
Bloodless. Her voice flows through the evocative lyrics with ease, weaving through the gentle
strum of a lone acoustic guitar. The quiet intimacy builds into a storm of sound, culminating in
Samia's layered, ethereal harmonies that pierce with a haunting, macabre refrain: "And drained,
drained bloodless."
These emptied cattle evoke a grotesque vessel she unwittingly nurtured in an attempt to
embody something both untouchable and on display, overflowing with infinite projections and
capable of driving an unrelenting pursuit of the unattainable. Through sharp images—Diet Dr.
Pepper and Raymond Carver as parallel pursuits of minimalism, white underwear and leeches,
a Degas dancer poised at the bannister—Samia examines a paradoxical existence where merit
transforms into a calculated act of extraction ("I felt the pea, can I eat it?"). This is just one strand
Samia weaves into the intricate tapestry of Bloodless.
Her 2020 debut album, The Baby, marked a confessional coming-of-age —an intimate love
letter to those sentiments that are most difficult to articulate. In her 2023 album Honey, Samia
deepens this exploration of young adulthood, offering a more introspective take as she searches
for clarity. These releases, including her 2021 EP Scout, alongside her magnetic live
performances, have earned her widespread critical acclaim, over 150 million streams, and a
devoted fan base who sing along passionately to every word at sold-out shows. She’s also won
over new audiences opening for artists like Maggie Rogers, Lucy Dacus, and Courtney Barnett.
“I’ve spent the past two decades unintentionally conflating an abstract idea of men with my
understanding of God,” Samia explains. “The person I became in order to impress this imagined
figure is inseparable from who I am today. With this album, I’ve tried to confront that head-on.”
Bloodless explores her relationship with a fragmented, symbolic version of Men—a patchwork of
expectations and imagined standards she tried to meet, which ultimately shaped her sense of
self.
“I suffer from decision paralysis,” she admits, “where I’ll mentally play out every possible choice
and endure the consequences in my head. God and Men provide some aspect of relief here in
that they will make choices for you. The great thing about God and my Figment Man is that I
decide what either of them wants me to do. So, in this convoluted way, I still get to do what I
want, while offloading the responsibility.”
Hole in a Frame, the album's contemplative centerpiece, references a framed section of wall at
a Tulsa venue where, in 1978, Sid Vicious punched a hole — the absence, that lack, absurdly
glorified. “It's easier to be an idea than a person,” Samia reflects. “Your distorted proxy protects
you from stagnation. I find a certain logic in canonizing a void, and even more in trying to
become one. It feels familiar, and comforting. Unlike the actual you, your lack only grows in
value and mystery with time.”
On Lizard, with its bright, sing-song melody and teetering synths, Samia confesses, “It’s painful
to stay present, to exist as a real, flesh-and-blood person at a party, after existing comfortably as
a myth or a memory. And it was even more painful to try not to ruin a party I’d already ruined.
“I wanted to stop punishing myself by denying that a significant part of my personality was built
around traits and behaviors I believed—whether through observation or hearsay—men would
like,” she explains. “I began to compare it to a relationship with God, where believers shape
their entire lives around His commandments, even though they were never explicitly asked to do
so.”
For Bloodless, Samia reunited with producers Caleb Wright—of her favorite band, The Happy
Children—and Jake Luppen of Hippo Campus,who also happens to be her neighbor in
Minneapolis. She recently relocated there after a year in LA, three years in Nashville, and
spending her teens and early 20s in New York City. Rounding out the team is Samia’s close
friend and fellow artist Raffaella, who inspired the song North Poles. Together they’ve created a
space where Samia can be both vulnerable and challenged.
Recorded in North Carolina and Minneapolis, Bloodless is a richly layered album that shifts
seamlessly from sparse folk to sweeping indie-pop epics. Tracks like Fair Game explore duality,
“oscillating between idealized and demonized versions of myself, fantasizing about fully
embodying either." Meanwhile, Sacred uncovers “someone’s capacity for love through their
hatred.”
The album concludes with the shimmering and unconventional Pants, centered around the
biting lyric: “Who was I when I bought these pants? / They’re non-refundable / Now I’m
questioning everything I am.” The song delves into the endless, often fruitless search for a
version of ourselves we believe once existed, only to realize that this “original” self was never a
fixed identity. It’s a realization that can make us feel like strangers in our own lives,
second-guessing even the smallest choices.
Across these thirteen songs, Samia grapples with the hollow form she once embodied—a
vessel that gained value through its own absence, until playing dead became its own form of
life. With Bloodless, she endeavors to disinter the self buried beneath these carefully
constructed personas, ultimately reaching a place of acceptance for her whole, imperfect being.
