Indie Underground New Release Spotlight
Daniel Etherton
Daniel released two tracks that evolved from something really sad happening in his life. Last April his Grandad passed away.
Daniel was asked to write the eulogy and read it at the funeral, he decided to focus on the ‘good’ in goodbye. With restrictions at the time, it was harder to give him a proper send-off. Daniel bottled up a lot on that day to get through my part and have mixed feelings about it but made ‘Good In Goodbye’ as a coping mechanism.
‘Sand’ came about earlier this year - a year passed, Daniel's grandma living without her soulmate and his mum and uncle without their Dad. Based on the idiom; sands of time. The concept is connected to popular memento mori paintings and the inevitability of death. Daniel believes that we can't hold back time but can live life with love lost, although never forgotten.
This is why Daniel decided to have a double A-side for the release. It’s two parts to one story.
