In 2015, she released her EP titled “Mythic,” which featured the song “No One.” This track reached the No. 6 position on the U.S. Viral Spotify Charts, marking an early career milestone. Mothica’s musical style, which she described as “bummer pop” and dream pop for her early work, is influenced by rock and emo genres.

In August 2020, Mothica released her 12-song album “Blue Hour,” which addressed her journey towards sobriety and also appeared on music charts. This was followed by the EP “Forever Fifteen” in March 2021 and her second studio album, “Nocturnal,” in July 2022. She is set to release her third album, “Kissing Death,” in August 2024.
