AUSTIN CHRONICLE REVIEW: www.austinchronicle.com/daily...
ABOUT THE SONG: “Makeup,” a dynamic anthem inspired by the fight for trans rights in Texas, will be the first of three new Parker Woodland singles this summer, leading to the Austin trio's first full-length on Sept. 6, 2024.
The lyrics for “Makeup” were sparked by a child’s protest sign outside the Governor’s Mansion and singer/bassist Erin Walter’s experiences as an activist and the mom of a queer teen in Texas. It’s an emphatic cry for love and acceptance where the song takes the listener on a journey through self-discovery.

It's also ok to not have the want or need to purchase makeup, nor wear it, & still feel beautiful & yr true self. I hate make-up for the most part, but if you love it, alrighty. Do yr thing, love yrself.

Completely true! Everyone being themselves (hopefully someday without prejudice or persecution) is the point of the song, and the use of makeup by this song’s protagonist is just one example of the billion ways to be yourself. Stay perfectly you! ❤❤
