Rowe Unveils New Single ‘Again’
Rowe, the solo project of California-based vocalist and songwriter Becky Filip (formerly of The Honey Trees), is back with her sophomore single Again, the follow up of last year's Tired Love.
Again is a soul/r&b song about romanticising the past and choosing to live in the fantasy for a moment and is beautifully backed by a smooth and laid-back production packed with lush piano chords, groovy guitar riffs and subtle drums. I am a big fan of Rowe's rich, soulful vocals who are definitely the star of the song and easily connect the emotion of her storytelling with the listener. It's that combination of live instrumentation, honest storytelling and soulful vocals that made me fall in love with Again! Have a listen to this gem below!
Speaking about the song, Rowe said,
I wrote this song from the perspective of someone who is idealizing a person or relationship who in reality was not great for them. You hold onto the fragmented parts of the memory of that person and start to fall into the 'what ifs' and begin to believe it could somehow work again. There's a sort of struggle between fantasy and reality in your mind. Sometimes it just hurts less to live in the fantasy for a moment.
