NEW MUSIC: Lightning Bolt

As we all cruise into a long weekend in North America we have shared another new song from the forthcoming album “Glory”. The track is called “Lightning Bolt”.

Stream it here or take a listen below, and make sure to add it to your collections and playlists.

From Brett:

I almost called it Josie #2– but it was about someone else, and I wanted it to be for her. I love the part of writing that allows you to create a universe out of different peoples personalities and stories. I think it’s one of the things we can offer others that not very many people can. The thought of letting someone know that you notice them, that they’re presence has value. It’s also a little bit of a high trying to impress someone with what you can deduct about the next layer of their being- the parts they don’t exactly show out in the open. Almost like a puzzle.
For me— the lightning bolt is the person that everyone wants to be around— someone with a gift for human connection and I don’t think that’s always a very easy place to be.
This person put a mirror up to me and helped me understand way more about myself— so I wanted to give her a song to celebrate the parts of her that she didn’t necessarily know were so beautiful.

Favorite lyrics I’ve ever written:
You see pictures
She’s in Barcelona
Staring through a camera like she’s never known ya
See the wind blowing through her hair?
That’s gods way of telling you he don’t care.
