Meernaa's So Far So Good travels perfectly with a glistening night out or a drive to a secret hideaway. It exists somewhere between R&B, jazz, psychedelic rock, art rock, and pop. As a genreless artist, it mirrors her constant struggle to balance a vibrant day to day of falling in and out of love, writing and recording music at her studio and the intensity in the back of her mind - her familial struggles concerning death, drugs, and instability. Meernaa's previously released singles InchAnother DimensionInch and InchOn My Line' introduce a celestial and soulful album. The weather of these songs is varied, the poetry shifting it's winds from tender playfulness to desire. Amelia Maher of The Line of Best Fit called Bond's imagination Inchas intriguing as it is beguiling and mysterious.Inch Part of a blooming Los Angeles music scene, Carly Bond is a studio engineer and partner at Altamira Sound studios.
