Correatown was a name someone called her once. Based in the Eastside of Los Angeles, the band is the musical project of Angela Correa with bandmates Mike Corwin, Jenni Tarma and Rob Poynter.
In previous incarnations, Correatown was a more spare amalgam of early folk and lo-fi buzzing indie rock; however, over the past few years the sound has evolved into a lush and textured experience of melodic soundscapes. “When I began writing songs for our latest recordings I kept imagining the sounds and instruments that would shape the direction of our new songs. The most appealing were really freaked out thick and pulsing bass sounds or odd twitchy static noises tucked into shimmering and ethereal melodies. I wasn’t sure how it could end up being beautiful but the more the band explored different arrangements and instruments, the more I felt the possibility of having a less organic sound that felt more evocative of the music we wanted to create was our compass,” confesses Angela. Correatown sought out producer Dan Long and have spent the past year creating the sound of their upcoming recordings.
Angela Correa/ Correatown have self-released three full-length albums and two EPs and had songs used on television, including Grey's Anatomy, How I Met Your Mother, Ugly Betty and Brothers and Sisters. In 2007, Angela's voice was featured as the singing voice of Jenna Fischer's character Darlene in the Sony Pictures film "Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story" on the songs "Let's Duet." Angela Correa/ Correatown have toured the West Coast extensively, as well as parts of the Midwest and East Coast, UK and Europe.
The band is set to release their third full length, Pleiades, on September 20th through their own label Another Room Recordings.
The Point
Correatown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let me believe
A fascination, a specter
Walking toward me
And what's the point?
I can't see beyond the void
Let me feel you
In my own paradox
I'd give anything and everything
And what's the point?
I can't see beyond the void
And what's the point?
I can't see beyond what I can't see beyond
When I can't see beyond the void
The Correatown's song The Point is a contemplative piece that touches on themes of longing, uncertainty, and the power of emotions. The first verse speaks of a desire for clarity and a willingness to believe, yet these feelings are met with the specter of an undefined fascination. The singer in the song feels pulled towards this unknown force, yet can't see beyond the void.
The second verse emphasizes the importance of feeling and connecting with others. The singer is willing to give everything and anything to experience intimacy and paradoxically, connect with their own self. However, once again, the question arises of what the point is if they can't see beyond the void. The final repetition of this line is a nod to the conflicting emotions and the sense of being lost that comes with navigating the complexities of the human experience.
Overall, the song is a hauntingly beautiful attempt to reconcile with the unknown and the inexplicable, while also highlighting the importance and power of human emotions.

Currently watching the tragic documentary series "The trials of Gabriel Fernandez" and heard this song, so chilling, and poignant, really captures the feeling. What was the point, the point the point?! Such a senseless and monstrous thing to happen to such a beautiful child. May you rest in paradise little Gabriel <3
