Aviana And The Pure Root was thrilled to release her latest single, “Through His Eyes,” in July which is now available for streaming on all platforms.

Listen to the song HERE.
Produced by St. Louis-based Engineer WhoIsTimothy, written and co-produced by Aviana herself, “Through His Eyes” marks a notable departure from Aviana’s traditional soulful rock sound. The upbeat and sexy track blends Contemporary R&B, reggae, Afrobeats, Afro-pop, and Afro-fusion into a vibrant musical tapestry. “Through His Eyes” showcases Aviana And The Pure Root’s signature blend of soulful melodies and introspective lyrics, encapsulating the essence of her unique ability to foster emotional healing within her listeners. It’s a record that will make you want to dance and fall in love all summer.
“Through His Eyes” is about the joys of romantic union and how spiritual it indeed is. It’s about this long-awaited love finally being here and the notion that the eyes are the gateway to the soul,” Aviana explains. “I’ve truly had that experience where I’ve felt like I’ve seen God, the beginning of time, the oldest of souls, through a particular person’s eyes. It’s almost like I could see into an ancient past- it’s both captivating and heartbreaking at the same time.”
The track serves as a precursor to the Love Spells EP, a conceptual project that explores the journey of meeting various soul mates throughout one’s life. This EP will be accompanied by a music video for each song, forming a short film when watched together. “Through His Eyes” is the inaugural video in this cinematic endeavor, setting the stage for a deep exploration of relationships and personal growth. The long-awaited project intends to take the audience on a journey of the frequent soul mates that one encounters throughout one’s life, yet learning to decipher between a past life cycle that is meant to end versus your true-life partner that is manifested when one surrenders to their true purpose in life. With “Through His Eyes,” this enticing journey begins.
