Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Josiah Mann Releases New Song “Swim Away”
Missouri-based indie-pop singer-songwriter Josiah Mann released a new song “Swim Away” on January 2, 2023.
The song is the fourth single of his upcoming debut album “Grace”, which is expected to be released in early 2023.
The track was written and produced by Josiah Mann.
“The piano theme that runs through 'Swim Away' has always been one of my favorite melodies,” Josiah Mann said of the song. "I also love how the interplaying themes of the piano and electric guitar contrast the swelling strings. One of my favorite parts of recording this song was working with live strings to bring out the emotional content I thought the song called for.”
He continued, “'Swim Away' was one of the first 'hits' I had in my fledgling music career nearly 20 years ago. I never released it publicly but I had the cool experience of hearing friends of friends blaring it out their car window a couple weeks after sharing a demo.”- The debut album comprises 10-track and is part one of what will be a three-album life-journey narrative.
After finishing recording the album, he flew to Nashville for a month with his wife, hired a crew, planned and shot 10 music videos and 10 live performance videos in 30 days.
The album explores the bright-eyed optimism of a young love, and the heartbreak and introspection of a failed relationship. The album traces a rose-colored glasses romantic storyline through its painful demise over one indiscretion, and it reveals a unique side of love and loss: how through our careless actions we bring on heartbreak. - source : Apple Music
