"Milwaukee" captures the feeling of drifting into a place and, before you know it, realizing you’ve put down roots. When I first came here, I wasn’t sure I was moving—I just kept coming back. And one night, after a week of going out, after a Father John Misty show, I finally stayed in. It felt strange, even guilty, to sit still. That moment inspired the song’s refrain: I’m not out tonight.
It became...

Originally a piano ballad, this stripped-down acoustic version brings out the raw emotion and lyrical depth that makes Holy Pinto’s music so unique.

"Ice" captures the emotional walls we put up after heartbreak. After leaving a long-term relationship, I found myself hesitant to trust, afraid of being hurt again—especially by those who once swore they wouldn’t. So, I’d rather pull away, stay independent, and keep my guard up than risk vulnerability.
The title plays on "Ice, ice, baby," but it also reflects the paradox of emotional self-preservati...
"Beauty" came to me during a time of deep meditation, following an ego death—a moment when everything fell away, leaving me face to face with the parts of myself I didn’t want to see. The only way through was meditation, and in one of these sessions, I had an encounter with source, a feminine, radiant presence that filled me with warmth and comfort. She told me, "You are beauty. You were made this way. ...

One of my favorite lines in the song is, "I'm just a mammal in the sea, I need to surface just to br...

"Embozi" is a song born from a moment of deep uncertainty. I was losing my balance, losing myself, and struggling to find my direction again. Music, which had always been my anchor, felt like it was slipping away. I had this thought—maybe I’ll write one last song, one last album, and then I’m done.
But then came a long drive to Nashville, a full week of songwriting ahead, and hours alone in the car ...
"Golden Brown" is a deeply personal song I wrote for my wife while working on my first album. I wanted to include something just for her, a quiet tribute to how much she means to me.
Over time, as our family has grown, the song has taken on even greater meaning. Now, when I sing it, I feel its weight even more—especially the line, "Oh my God, if you take this away from me, I might forfeit what ...
Between 1916 and 1970, roughly six million African-Americans living in the South uprooted their families to migrate to cities in the West and North. They came seeking the promise of a better life; escape from racial violence, better jobs, higher wages, and better educational opportunities. Milwaukee and Wisconsin began to feel the shift in the 1940s. Just before WWII, Milwaukee’s Black population totaled about 1.5 per...
