Joan of Arc is the latest single from Los Angeles native Mia Mormino. The rising pop star has an impressive back catalogue of releases with Joan of Arc being her third in 2022 alone.

Opening with a beautiful piano the track is oozing with a feeling that seems greater than ourselves.

The cinematic undertone is one that cannot be denied and the track boasts a huge sound. The build up to the chorus is immense, The constant climb of the track feels like the moments leading up to a battle.

Mia’s vocals are as clear as a bell with a fierce intensity that commands the listener. She is a leader ready for rebellion and the compulsion you feel to follow her into battle is unavoidable. Fighting for a purpose the story the lyrics tell is one of blood and glory.

The track tells a tale of rebellion and transformation in the face of reclaiming the power we have always had but are often tricked into believing otherwise. Joan of Arc makes you want to go out and overthrow the patriarchy. Truly empowering.

Joan of Arc is an insanely rich track that feeds the spark of rebellion present in us all. The cinematic track is my favourite release of 2022 so far. Mia Mormino is definitely destined for great things.
