Moneá (pronounced Mo-Nay) is a rising singer-songwriter from Richmond, Virginia. Not too long ago, she released a dreamy indie R&B single, entitled, “My Eyes Are Open,” which blurs the lines between what is real and what is fantasy. The ethereal tune finds Moneá exploring themes of love and the urgency she possesses to chase her goals.

“I’m wide awake but I need some time to reflect. Gotta pinch myself ‘cause it’s really hard to accept. This fantasy, I can’t believe this, is this a dream? I need to chase it.” – lyrics
Our dreams can give us a lot of insight into our reality, especially if we keep track of what we’re dreaming about. In “My Eyes Are Open,” Moneá channels a dream she once had about someone that she didn’t want to end. This is what’s at the very core of her captivating new single. Once she heard the beat, she instantly thought of a dream she had about her first love before they started dating. It was a positive dream – so good that she turned it into a song.
‘My Eyes Are Open’ contains a relatable narrative and soft vocals that will resonate well with fans of Kailaya, Dana Williams, and Emilie Kahn. The smooth, ethereal tune possesses mellow drum-laden instrumentation flavored with neo-soul and indie R&B elements. Furthermore, “My Eyes Are Open” serves as a tasty appetizer to what listeners can expect to hear from Moneá in the near future as she continues to release new music.
