#8/10 singles out today! 'Lights Low'
The first of the songs Cecilie Anna was inspired to make when long-time favourite voices Bill Callahan and Will Oldham suddenly started releasing songs together. Her head nearly exploded while listening to their take on Cat Steven’s ‘In the Blackness of the Night’ and she immediately made ‘Lights Low’. Not only does it pay tribute to their voices, it’s also a hommage to Cat Steven’s song which tells the story of a young soldier dying on the battlefield in a war not of his own. The song encourages us to try to care for and nourish what is left after dark times, and to attempt to build something new with love and patience.
