Eric Heinrichs Shares New Single ‘Breathless’
American singer and songwriter Eric Heinrichs has just shared his brand new single Breathless, out now via Starlit Minds. I am loving his passionate vocal delivery and how it instantly drew my attention to his relatable storytelling.
Breathless is a song about growing up with boxes and limitations, feeling misunderstood and wanting to reach higher. It shares a positive message that we are allowed to shine brighter and break away from all the things that inhibit us to be our true selves. This message is wrapped around a memorable indie-pop production with intricate guitar & ukulele riffs effortlessly intertwined with punchy percussion that enhance the emotion pouring from his vocals. The song has a cool anthemic, feel-good atmosphere that I find perfect for a fun, relaxing summer weekend.
Accompanying the release, Eric Heinrichs has shared its official music video, directed by his wife Manisha Heinrichs, which beautifully embodies the song's message and atmosphere. Check it out below!
They said I'd never jump higher, and called it "gravity." This line really carries the heart of the song for me. All of us have grown up with boxes and limitations. Whether those boxes are societal, religious, political, or whatever else, they tend to inhibit us from our truest expression in all of its colorful forms. This song is an ode to anyone who knows they're made to shine like a bright blue, but have been living in grayscale. It's for anyone who's felt limited and misunderstood and burns to reach higher. I hope everyone can find themselves weightless in knowing they are made to be so much more than the gravity pulling against them.
