This piece is incredibly important to me; It's about grief, self reflection and suicide. I wrote it in a depressive blur after finding out a friend, someone that I had selfishly never took the time to know properly, took her life. My music is typically quite processed as I want to deliver the best possible recording for my audience; however, I refuse to ever publish this song the same way I would release my usual playthroughs. This video is completely live, all sounds you hear are coming out of my guitar and pedalboard.
I was unsure if it was a good idea to post this for a competition but I decided that bringing this song to a broader audience may help more people find peace in the hopelessness and sorrow that comes with the loss of a life. Mental illness is incredibly complex, I will never be able to preach positive actions to take that will apply to everyone but although it’s overstated, if you are struggling PLEASE REACH OUT AND STAY STRONG.
This is my entry for the international fingerstyle guitar competition hosted by Natasha Guitars, ( natashaguitar.com/ ).
Thank you to Craig Harris and Thyson Mitchel for helping set up and film this video
