Stitched Up Heart Releases Video for Title Track “Medusa” from New Album
Stitched Up Heart, the rock band from Los Angeles, unveiled their latest single “Medusa” featuring Lyric Noel and released their new album, MEDUSA, under the Judge & Jury Records label. The song, according to Mixi, reflects a story of empowerment for women who have faced betrayal, symbolizing reclaiming power and shedding negativity. The track encapsulates a sense of liberation and strength in overcoming adversities.
The accompanying music video, shot in Dallas, Texas, draws inspiration from Greek mythology, specifically the myth of Perseus and Medusa. Unlike the traditional narrative where Medusa meets her demise at the hands of Perseus, the video portrays twin Medusas taking control of their destiny and emerging victorious. The twin Medusas share a symbolic bathtub scene, representing shedding old skin and embracing transformation, akin to the song’s ethos.
Mixi spearheaded the unique concept for the video, emphasizing themes of rebirth and empowerment. The visual depiction aligns with the track’s message of resilience and transformation, highlighting the potency of emerging stronger after facing betrayal. The presence of a live snake in the production further added depth to the video, serving as a metaphor for shedding negative stereotypes associated with snakes.
Produced by Cameron Mizell and Evan McKeever, MEDUSA showcases Stitched Up Heart’s musical and lyrical evolution, capturing themes of self-discovery, resilience, and personal empowerment. The album’s songs were crafted with live performances in mind, aiming to create a vibrant and energetic atmosphere for audiences to connect with the music.
Featuring collaborations with artists like Austin John Winkler, Butcher Babies, Nonpoint, and others, the album represents a significant milestone for the band following their signing with Judge & Jury Records in 2025. Stitched Up Heart’s trajectory has been on the rise, marked by electrifying live performances and extensive touring, including support slots for Sebastian Bach and Infected Rain.
Mixi continues to advocate for women in rock and metal, leveraging her platform to highlight gender diversity in the music industry. Apart from her musical endeavors, she actively supports animal rescue organizations in Southern California, showcasing her commitment to social causes and philanthropy.
With “Medusa” as the lead single, the album MEDUSA presents a diverse collection of tracks, each encapsulating the band’s evolution and growth. From anthemic rock tunes to collaborations with acclaimed artists, Stitched Up Heart’s latest offering embodies a spirit of empowerment, resilience, and unwavering determination.
