With his latest single, “pretty lies,” morato blends smooth vocals and romantic, guitar-driven melodies, while exploring the delicate nature of love and the fear of losing it.
The Vancouver-based artist’s alluring vocals over intimately dreamy instrumentals, brought to life with longtime collaborator Ngyn and guitarist Julian Ray, demonstrate his evolving signature style. What stands out with morato is that while these elements shine together, they could also stand alone. Even an a cappella or purely instrumental version of "pretty lies" would feel just as exquisite. There’s something truly impressive about artistry where every detail is carefully crafted and intentional.
Collaborating with Mzn, the two artists weave together so naturally that the song feels seamless. This is the start of their ongoing partnership, with more releases already in the works. If their effortless chemistry in “pretty lies” is any indication, then the anticipation is high for what’s to come.
“Rather than leaning into confrontation or drama, the track chooses empathy,
capturing the subtle tension of holding onto a connection that feels fragile.”
“pretty lies” is the type of song where you instinctually close your eyes while listening. Each lyric carries a quiet weight, drawing you into morato’s world of love, longing, and vulnerability. The storytelling is vivid yet understated, allowing emotion to seep through every note without feeling forced.
morato delivers a song that is introspectively raw and resonant in all the right ways, cultivating an afterglow that lingers. Be sure to follow morato at the links below to stay connected!
