Having announced their eighth studio album ‘Beauty In your Wake‘ with the sublime single ‘What Would You Call Yourself‘, Fin Greenall and his cohorts Tim Thornton (drums/guitar) and Guy Whittaker (bass) have returned with single number two titled ‘So We Find Ourselves’.
Greenall reflects on the song by saying:
“This song is so personal. I am the first to pour hate on other writers when they have kids and end up writing the ‘baby song’ record afterwards but this is my New Dad song and that’s that! When mine grows up I hope she hears this and knows what it’s like to fall in love together.
“Aside from parenthood, it’s about nothing ever being the wrong thing, it’s about optimism, it’s about rags to riches to riches to rags. In the end, we get it right either way. When we recorded it, I sat live at an open piano and just belted my heart out into the piano itself to get that lovely reverb from the piano’s body. It had to be a live take and I think that’s why there is so much charge in this one.”
Soulful, organic and very human, the rise and fall of the vocals and percussive beating heart of the track deliver a peaceful prayer-like moment. Greenall delivers a startling, intimate performance that acts as an anchor to the float away piano notes.
