Van Bellman Premieres New Song “All This Time”
Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter and American Authors guitarist Zac Taylor, aka Van Bellman delivered a new song “All This Time” for Valentine's Day.
The song is the follows up to the previously released songs "Gold & Blue" and "I Hate To See You This Way".
Van Bellman said of the song, “I initially wrote ‘All This Time’ for Connell Cruise, who was label mates with my other band American Authors on Island Records a couple years ago, but has since moved back to South Africa where he just won Dancing With the Stars. But I always loved this song and I didn’t want it to fall through the cracks.”- He continued, “I’m mainly a guitarist but I love writing on piano because I can come across some happy accidents. That’s where the piano riff came from: a toy piano gathering dust in the corner of Mission Sound studio with one broken key, which you can hear in the track if you listen closely. I composed the string section digitally and had my friends Marie Kim (currently playing keys for Mitski) and Andy Baldwin (acclaimed mixing engineer for Björk, Cat Power, St Lucia, yours truly) replace it with actual cello and violin, which is truly a sonic treat in today’s digital age.”
