Have you been homesick for a place you've never been? A time you never lived in? There's a Welsh word for it, "Hiraeth" (pronounced here-eyeth) and this song is my interpretation of it. I feel like we all get a sense of it but can't exactly characterize what emotion it is, and the way I would describe it would only be comparable to being lost in the sky. Music is extremely powerful in the way that it brings people together and helps others recognize that they are not alone, which is what I want my music to accomplish. To listen to a song and think, "They feel this way, too!" is one of the most comforting things, and I hope my songs help you find comfort, too.
I'm 16 years old and have been playing piano most of my life, though I have picked up some other instruments along the way. I played all the instruments on this song and recorded, edited and produced it along with the video (starring my baby sister) all on my phone. I have two other songs I have produced over quarantine, Away and Better, and you can find them through my links below. Thanks for listening.
