Aistis, the enigmatic Lithuanian-Canadian singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist, released his latest single "Plateau Botticelli", the first preview from his highly anticipated upcoming new album 'Clay'. With an eccentric blend of wit, candor, and introspection, Aistis dives deep into the human experience, delivering a hauntingly beautiful narrative that resonates with audiences worldwide.

"Plateau Botticelli" serves as the cornerstone of Aistis' forthcoming album, 'Clay', a profound exploration of love, conversation, illusion, ego, and pain. Crafted from his home studio while finishing the touches of a separate project made during the COVID years, the album emerged as a cathartic journey through the complexities of relationships and self-discovery.

Reflecting on the genesis of "Plateau Botticelli" and the creation of 'Clay', Aistis shares, "What started as an exercise of inner-navigation and immediacy, very quickly morphed into a period of isolated and manic writing/recording at my home studio. Plateau Botticelli was the catalyst that opened the door to what became an 11-track exploration of love, conversation, illusion, ego, and pain, laced with humour, beauty, understanding, and the complete lack thereof, in a story that has no true beginning or end. To blur the lines of where reality and fantasy meet while using song to claw through and try to understand but ultimately acknowledge that the album becomes another artifact of a disillusioned story. It is my expression of the insurmountable love and gratitude that I have for and to this person, in the strangest, yet truest, way I can, with a wink and a nod".

Intricately weaving together elements of alternative folk and theatricality, Aistis invites listeners into a sonic landscape where vulnerability meets resilience. As the album's release date draws near, anticipation continues to build for Aistis' captivating blend of storytelling and musical craftsmanship.

About

Using wit and candor as mortar and pestle to grind the ego into finer granules of emotional truth — Aistis is a Lithuanian-Canadian singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist living in Montreal.
Disrupting the usual love songs with his eccentric and feverish attention to others, he explores his sunken expressions by creating his own folklore. Inspired by story tellers like David Berman, Leonard Cohen, and Andy Shauf, his lyrically centered art-folk is verbose and sincerely his own.
He performs an exaggerated imitation of himself, riddled with nostalgia and hypersensitivities that can only be unleashed in vast sonic landscapes, freeing himself through poetic repetition and detailed orchestral sound. Everyday objects become manic symbols, as he traverses his imagined existential meadow, always pointing fingers to the big cosmic jokes.
