modern moxie, an acclaimed indie rock band from Charlotte, North Carolina, are pleased to announce the release of their latest single, “Churning.” This emotionally rich song derives from a channeled poem written by lead singer and songwriter Madison Lucas, which delves into deep personal reflections and themes of spirituality. The poem that inspired “Churning” came to Lucas in a moment of deep clarity after a morning meditation session. This latest work takes listeners on a journey of self-discovery and spiritual exploration. The single is now available to watch on his YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tianUzNwqsM.
“Churning” stands out as a testament to Modern Moxie’s unique approach to music and creativity. The band has consistently differentiated itself through a blend of raw musical talent and innovative strategies beyond sound. A key element of their distinction is a creative social media strategy called “Moxie TV” created by lead singer Madison Lucas. “Moxie TV” features weekly segments such as Vinyl Corner, Slap Du Jour, and Moxie Talks, fostering a strong sense of community not only among modern musicians, but also among Charlotte’s other musicians.
The band’s ability to connect with an audience was definitely demonstrated when they were hired at the last minute to open for the famous underground group Aces at Charlotte’s Fillmore. Despite his relative obscurity, his modern performance of Moxie was a huge success, resonated with a young audience, and all merchandise sold out. This pivotal moment proved the band’s ability to attract large crowds and left a strong impression on new fans.
Lead singer Madison Lucas further enhances the appeal by hand-screen-printing all of the band’s merchandise, emphasizing eco-friendly and frugal options. The band also sells its own flowers and pickles sourced from the front garden of Lucas and bassist Harry, his Colm, who have been a couple since 2017. This personal touch further establishes Modern’s Moxie’s dedication to community and the environment.
Modern Moxie is made up of Madison Lucas (songwriting, guitar, keys, vocals), Harry Colm (bass), Phil Pucci (lead guitar), Chris Slezak (drums), and Charlie Weeks. Previously “Live a Fantasy” and “Agitation”. They were formed in 2019 and have been attracting a lot of attention since releasing their debut album “Claw Your Way Out.” Their track “Flowers in Your Hair” has been streamed over 3.9 million times on Spotify.
