Mia Larkin, who goes by Zilpah Louise when she performs, is a singer-songwriter and indie musician from Charlotte, North Carolina. She got started with music by posting guitar takes and singing covers of her favorite songs on socials, and now she's ready to share her original work. Inspired by female icons like FKA Twigs, Lucy Dacus, and Lana Del Ray, she has a beautiful falsetto and an impressive vocal range. Her lyrics represent an honest and authentic yearning for connection, as "By the Fall" explores the emotional challenge of navigating interpersonal relationships.

Made a promise to myself that I'd be
Better by the fall
Now the leaves are brown
And I can't see an ending to it all
There's a place that I could go where
Maybe I won't feel so small
Where the leaves are orange and red
And I can hear the forest call

Sometimes, the human heart craves solitude, and wants to escape to a beautiful, remote place. This well-crafted song investigates that dream, of equating solace and contentment with the experience of being alone.

Zilpah Louise experiments with fashion in a way that combines equal elements of femininity and edginess.
