#griefsoundtrack. must be a way

"Must be a way, the blues are so black / And my heart an empty shape / That I can't recognize before my eyes"

From the album Argonauta, available May 25, 2018 from Western Vinyl. Pre-Order Argonauta: WV http://westernvinyl.com/shop/wv173 Bandcamp https://aishaburns.bandcamp.com/album/argonauta iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/argonauta/1348490853?ls=1&app=itunes Born and raised in San Antonio, Texas, and currently residing in Beverly, Massachusetts, violinist, vocalist and songwriter Aisha Burns began playing violin when she was 10 years old, and has been touring and recording since 2006. Soon after moving to Austin in 2005, she gained her start with folk-rock outfit Alex Dupree and the Trapdoor Band, and joined the instrumental ensemble Balmorhea on violin in 2007. After years of secret singing, she released her solo debut Life in the Midwater in 2013. Called "twisting, ethereal...arresting" by Dazed Magazine, and praised for its "delicate intimacy" by NPR, Life in the Midwater explored mortality and relationships with candor and wisdom. Her new album Argonauta, is a collection of songs about her struggle with the grief of losing her mother, while also navigating a new relationship, and ultimately trying to figure out what the new normal is for her life.

Hier gefunden und dazu gleich ein Statement der Sängerin zum Song; ein Lied über Depressionen und deren Macht die eigene Sicht auf die Wirklichkeit zu verändern.

For "Must Be A Way," I imagined what the physical manifestation of depression might look like if it took on the form of a geographical space. I finished the song in Marfa, Texas, a place I truly and joyously love, but the sense of sparseness and isolation I found while further exploring the West Texas desert seemed to apply. Like some sort of damaging mirage, depression bends the lines of reality and leaves you in a fight to discern what's real and what's only an illusion.

Ein Album ist auf dem Weg. das entstanden ist mit einem leeren und gleichzeitig vollen Herz, wenn die eigene Mutter stirbt und zeitgleich Liebe mit einer neuen Beziehung ins Leben kommt. Das leere und gleichzeitig volle Herz das können wir mit unserem eigenen Herzen hören.
