Have you ever been enchanted by a suspicious creature? AKA an emotionally unavailable rollercoaster of a gorgeously alluring & mysterious human. Since writing the song at age 21, singer-songwriter Lauren Tracy has come to some startling realization of the meaning behind her lyrics. "I was describing my obscure love interest at the time & only made sense of it years later" Lauren explains. Why do some people find themselves attracted to toxic relationships? They say your childhood experience of love influences your sense of love & attraction. Lauren hopes that people that relate to her lyrics can have the chance to introspect. 'Suspicious Creature' talks about something dark and yet playful & beautiful. "But what's so compelling of where suspicion lies, it crashed my expectations and you opened up my eyes". Darkness can lead to beauty through introspection & growth. And so this tale becomes an epic dialogue of her journey.
Moon Rise City independently produced their Official Music Video for Suspicious Creature on Phu Quoc Island during isolation.
This independently produced music video was shot in Phu Quoc (Vietnam), when Lauren & Indy were stuck on the island because of the world Pandemic. By chance they met a Russian filmmaker & used their time to create a DIY music video. It's a reflection of love games. The realization of the hold another human being can have on you. The fierceness of confronting your inner struggles. The playfulness of it all. The beauty. The darkness too. And a little bit of mystery...
