Moxi

Los Angeles duo Moxi just released a series of summer singles, and today we're excited to premiere its second offering. "Missing Piece" is a primo sunny jam, soaring with Anna Nelson's dreamy vocals and rounded out with Andy Toy's shimmering synth hooks. Stream the uplifting track above.

"'Missing Piece' feels in many ways like our red-headed stepchild that we never knew what to do with, but have now come to love," Nelson admits. "We weren't even planning on recording it until we tried playing it live and it soon became one of our fan favorites. Both the lyrics and music are fun, upbeat, and happy (the opposite of almost every other song we've written), which is partly due to our collaboration with our good friends and talented songwriters Vince Pizzinga and Bobby Hartry. We love 'Missing Piece' because it's quirky and dancey, and a ton of fun to play live, and mostly, because it's about our cat." - Pure Volume

“Over thumping drums and a sparkling array of electronic textures, Anna Nelson's vocals are so dreamy and alluring you'll want to be the one to save her when its all said and done” - Crayon Beats

“In My Dreams is good stuff that caught me off guard because I was thinking she was just another girl with a guitar. Instead she's dramatic and dreamy and her songs are easy to get lost in. It's an impressive effort all around and the fifth song, "Mystery," is worth the price of the single alone.” - The Pop Stereo

“Well written/performed pop music with an artistic presence & ever so gentle touches of electronic mixed in for flavor” - Rock n Roll Experience

“The stark black and white imagery that accompanies Los Angeles-based singer Anna Nelson (aka Moxi) in her new video for “Terrible Disguise” stands in sharp contrast to the song’s lush synth backdrop and subtly distorted beats. Nelson’s distinctive soprano seems to float above the instrumentation and playfully swoops through the notes like an acrobat, weaving between the sounds from the vintage keyboards and her signature omnichord strums. ” - Beats Per Minute

“In Moxi’s case there’s no big label endorsed policy of smoke and mirrors, just a great talent and proof that pop music can be intelligent as well as commercially appealing.” - Von Pip Musical Express

“Wide awake, “In My Dreams” opens the record with a surprising hook. A piano driven track, it’s got a powerful vocal performance that drives the song into your memory.” - Golden Mixtape

“Her soprano pop vocals float effortlessly over big keys and celestial electronic soundscapes. Whether she’s wistfully singing about the sadness of change, secret admirers, or seeking love, it’s like a dream.” - Crayon Beats

“A solid dose of adept pop songwriting make ‘Terrible Disguise’ an excellent intro to the duo.” - Blah Blah Blah Science

“wistful intelligent pop with dreamy electronic flourishes, rather like a vintage keyboard lovin’ Kathleen Edwards, which has subtly, depth and one would imagine broad appeal.” - Von Pip Musical Express

“Artist to watch! Meet Anna Nelson AKA Moxi, a Los Angeles-based singer and performer whose floating soundscape of vintage keyboards, big backbeats, and signature Omnichord strums are quickly brewing a buzz.” - Bigger Than Beyonce

“While today’s pop music seems convoluted, Moxi certainly has that moxie to stand on their own.” - The Owl Mag

“Moxi was mixing raw vocal talent with an ambient upbeat sound that just made sense....this lady is going places.” - Music In Press
