There’s a three hour difference between where I live and where I’m from. Two thousand miles between who I love and those I’ve loved. Twenty years between who I am and who I was. I headed west to escape dead ends, but six months later I just miss my friends. Drive away, drive away. I left to make up for the time I wasted singing songs in stranger’s basements. “I’ll go to find myself.” I said. But what have I found? I’m surrounded by mountains and I’m accomplished by nothing, reminded just how far away I am and how far I’ve yet to go.
The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
