Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Darro Shares New Song “Paralyzed”
Boston-based alt-rock singer and guitarist Darro has shared a new song “Paralyzed”.
The track is the third single off of his upcoming album “Songs Of Recovery”, following “You're Not Insane” and “Undefined”.
The album title came from his experience after surgery of a serious brain tumor, treatment, and an arduous recovery.
"I wrote this song after having my first panic attack in New York City. I had only been in the city for about two months, and I only had two friends in the entire city, and I just had brain surgery like less than six months ago. I definitely moved here way too soon because I was still dealing with PTSD from the whole tumor situation, and it was in the middle of winter,” Darro Chea (his real name) said in a statement. “I was doing something really boring, like walking to the grocery store, and I just remember seeing all of these faces in the street and no one was looking at me or noticing me, and it just felt like I didn't exist. And I was really scared because I just left the comfort of my home after the surgery and decided to move to one of the biggest cities in the world, and I felt really small and alone. And then I felt really guilty because my mom wanted me to stay longer but I was too restless, and now I felt like I needed to prove to her that it was a good decision to come to New York. And I also felt anxious about failing, and having gone through all that trauma for nothing. This song sort of encompasses a lot of those feelings for me. I like to describe the track as the feeling of screaming at a wall but no one is around to hear you."
The album is expected to be released later this year.- source : V13
