1)
Hailing from Denver, CO, formed in 2015, CITRA is composed of singer/guitarist Brandon Arndt, lead guitarist Augie Menos, bassist Sean Slattery and drummer Dan Naddy. Based in Colorado, CITRA quickly established themselves as “the premier rock group in the Denver music scene” - Ultra 5280, with gritty guitars, chugging backbeats, and self-assured songwriting.
The band released their first EP, Ocean in January of 2016 a mere three months after their inception. Regarding Ocean, The Prelude Press wrote “Fast, fun and loud, [CITRA] combines guitar driven sounds with soulful melodies to create five unforgettable tracks on their debut EP”.
Early 2017 saw CITRA release two new singles, “Air” and My My Mind” along with their first music video to build on the momentum of Ocean. Colorado publication Bolderbeat described the release as, “Gritty, dirty, edgy, yet catchy, a little grungy, and very original, we expect to hear these guys and their hard work appearing everywhere soon.”
The band's reputation for high-energy and captivating live shows began to spread and they quickly earned slots next to national acts from all over the country such as Greta Van Fleet, X Ambassadors, All American Rejects, and Shinedown. In early 2018 CITRA released their sophomore EP Mr. Copacetic to widespread acclaim, winning them 303 Magazine’s “Best Rock Artist” and “Fan-Favorite New Album” along with a nomination for Westword’s “Best Rock Band”.

Citra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And those to let fade
It′s all in the air
Can't right all the wrongs
Don′t have to hold on
It's all in the air
Just let it in
And breathe out the sin
The poisonous taste
No longer stays
It′s all in the air
Yeah, cause we′re still breathin, baby
I want air, I want air
Cause it's all that it is
It could be over honey
I want air, I want air
I ain′t trying to let go
Now I'm breathing all on my own
I ain′t trying to let go
Now I'm breathing all on my own
This could be the one
The day that it′s done
It's all in the air
Start up again
Or let it all end
It's all in the air
It′s time to react
Don′t think that you can't
It′s all in the air
Make change for yourself
Fuck everyone else
Yeah it's all in the air
Yeah, cause we′re still breathin, baby
I want air, I want air
Cause it's all that it is
It could be over honey
I want air, I want air
I ain′t trying to let go
Now I'm breathing all on my own
I ain't trying to let go
Now I′m breathing all on my own
I want air
I don′t care
I want air
I don't care
It could be over
I want air, I want air
Cause it′s all that it is
It could be over honey
I want air, I want air
I ain't trying to let go
Now I′m breathing all on my own
I ain't trying to let go
Now I′m breathing
I want air, I want air
Just let it in, and breathe out the sin
It's all in the air
Can't right all the wrongs, don′t have to hold on
It′s all in the air
I want air, I want air
Citra’s song “Air” is a song that encourages listeners to let go of negativity and embrace positivity. The song talks about how some things can be left to fade away, and how one doesn't have to hold on to the wrongs of the past, and how we can make a change for ourselves. The song begins with the line “Memories to be made, and those to let fade”, which establishes the theme of leaving behind negative thoughts and emotions. The singer then goes on to say that all of these things are “in the air”, which can be interpreted to mean that they are not solid, and can be changed or let go.
The chorus emphasizes the importance of air and breath, both literally and metaphorically. The lyrics say, “I want air, I want air, cause it’s all that it is”, which is a reminder that the most important thing we need to survive is air. In the song, air is also symbolic of a release from negative emotions, as breathing in positive energy and breathing out negative energy is mentioned. The phrase “now I’m breathing all on my own” is a powerful message of independence and self-reliance.
The bridge of the song is particularly thought-provoking, as it urges listeners to take action and make change for themselves. The words “fuck everyone else” express a sense of individualism and self-care, which is an important message in today's society. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus and the line “Just let it in, and breathe out the sin”, repeating the message of breathing in positivity and releasing negativity.

The last comment was 4 months ago and it got a reply, so I’m trying my luck here.
This band is criminally underrated. AIR and Felt So Right are honestly some of my favourite songs of all time. I really do wish you had more people discover your music because I am sure you could go way beyond averaging around 2k monthly listeners on Spotify. I’ve recommended your songs to many music-loving people in hopes for them to spread it further. I’ve mostly only received positive responses from the people I suggested you guys to. I’m hoping you’ll some day tour close to me so I can finally see one of my favourite bands play some of my favourite songs.
Thank you for the music.
CITRA
