Lexie Roth Announces 'MOVE ME' EP + 'Hanging Around' Short Film

Actress, musician and chef Lexie Roth has announced the release of MOVE ME, out March 31. Roth, whose acting career stands on legs of it's own, appeared alongside Jennifer Lawrence in Joy and will be featured in this Fall's Chappaquiddick. She wrote, performed and co-produced the five original tracks on this EP which also features Lilah Larson, Ezra Miller (Perks Of Being A Wallflower) and Josh Aubin of Sons of an Illustrious Father as well as Nick Shopa (Papertwin) and Mara Carlyle. MOVE ME EP is a mix of meditative mantras mixed with high energy drums and synth pop. Roth's rich voice moves gracefully between low, subtle melodies and brazen high notes. Textured vocal harmonies and canons paired with playful guitar riffs make each track deeply absorbing and memorable.

Today, COLLiDE has premiered the short film "Hanging Around". Roth shared of the song "'Hanging Around' is a glimpse into the pain of young love, cyclical life in the suburbs and the danger of an apathetic youth.". We encourage you to post & share!

Raised between Westchester, New York and Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, Roth grew up surrounded by music giants. Her father, virtuosic guitarist Arlen Roth, performed and recorded with the best artists of his generation, including Bob Dylan, James Taylor, Simon and Garfunkel, The Bee-Gees and Phoebe Snow. The EP is Roth's first release since her 2012 full length eponymous album, which included the song 'Call You My Hon', featured in the award-winning film Maria My Love. The synth-pop vibe of the EP is a departure from Roth's earlier blues/folk sound. "Lexie's songwriting skills have reached new heights," says co-producer Alex Salzman. "The tasty addition of electronic elements combined with hypnotic electric guitars, a powerful rhythm section and inspiring vocal performances have delivered her finest and most interesting work yet."

Roth will be hitting the road in April with more dates being added shortly. Full list above or click HERE.
