Total Brutal Spreads Positivity Through New Single, ‘Egypt’

TOTAL BRUTAL is the new indie pop solo project from Los Angeles based singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Emily Moore, who has a goal of spreading positivity and self-empowerment.

Her latest single ‘Egypt’ is an 80’s funk-fueled tinged song, oozing with soaring harmonies and warm, muted vocals, ‘Egypt’ narrates trying to get the feeling back of being a kid and the excitement of what the future holds. Moore confides, “I constantly need to remind myself to play more and lighten up. It’s easy to get lost in the seriousness of life but I want to go through life having fun and viewing everything with curiosity.”

Inspired by strong female artists, Total Brutal is determined to help other young women make their worth known and their voices heard. She shares, “It took me a really long time to understand that I am allowed to speak up, have opinions and speak directly. I’m starting to realize that I can be myself and be liked and professional all the same. I want to help foster that adventurous spirit and confidence in young women!”
