A gift for you... my "Veins"


You all mean so much to me. Seriously. If it weren't for you, the people who've supported me over the years I'm not sure where I would be. Maybe I would be a chef? Or a Fireman? But I chose to be a singer/songwriter because through music I feel I can show you how I heal myself by taking bad moments of my life and writing about them. Self healing. Through that I now see that you also get healed and that has made me a stronger writer, performer and person. So THANK YOU. I know I can't offer much more than the music I write but it's the one single most important thing to me. I've managed to pull myself through the darkest of times because of my ability to whittle it all down into around 3 minutes of melody. 

After my Dad passed away, it saved me. After my 8 year relationship break up it saved me. After a best friend's death, it saved me. I know it works. 

Recently I went through a hard break up for me. I think it was harder for me so what did I do? I wrote about it. What came of that was something way more important than I realized. 

The sound that resonated with me was not my electro sound, or my indie rock sound. It was my darker indie acoustic sound. There is something to be said about a lone guitar and your voice. It's so raw and so passionate. Just you and the song. 

My song "Veins" was born. After I completed the edits and found I had a full song my life turned around. I listened to the lyrics and I healed myself. Never will I go back to that same situation and get hurt by those circumstances, and most definitely not in that way.

So I was trying to think of something special for you, my wonderful supportive friends that continually get my emails and have supported my music for many years. It's a difficult decision for me to give away music because it's basically my livelihood, BUT I thought of something that I know you would like… right now, as of 3 days ago my album Dawn of Momentum, that came out at the end of last year has been re-released as Dawn of Momentum 2013 (Extended Bonus Version) with 4 added tracks, StarFire UK Single: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7QrmlHErQM, Cry To Dream (London Minimal Mix), Drifting Away:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVhFKfB4oqE and a special release by T.H.E Studio a venture I'm trying out with a very talented writer/producer in the UK called Amadeus9, an upcoming talent I found in my home town. I will be working more with him when I return to the UK in June. You can preview some of our tester tracks at http://www.krissearle.com on the songs page. All these newly added songs (apart from StarFire UK) feature the wonderful voice of Laura J Evanshttps://www.facebook.com/pages/Laura-J-Evans-Music/141812702503776 another incredible talent that is on the verge of breakout. I'm honored to be creating such great music with these people. 

SO. you can now pre-order (until April 2nd when it's released) Dawn Of Momentum 2013 (Extended Bonus Version) for $5.99, yep that's right, and if you do you will get my single "Veins" for FREE on May 19th when it's released, the same day I play The Viper Room - details and event coming very soon! This means now you are getting 16 tracks for $5.99!

F**king my love away

So, I've had a little exploration and I've found my music self again. 

I remember when I used to play my darker indie acoustic style in London and a few people said, "Why don't you try something more light hearted, not so dark?" So I did. It was a good exploration.. but I've MISSED my darker side. It's not dark like "dooooom and gloom," it's just going to that place where a lot of people don't like to go. That's all. 

Now, after a lot of music exploration I've found that those people that pull apart a particular song and tell me that it's "too dark" haven’t dealt with their emotions connected to that subject in the song. They don't let themselves go there. So they can't deal with the songs meaning. SO... they want to change it. 

Well, this time around I'm going there and I'm not going to filter. I'm going to deliver what I've wanted to deliver for years... and I can't wait.

For the longest time I was afraid of what I saw in myself and my ability to write. I went to the places where I didn't want to go because they made me face what I wasn't wanting to face. So I refused to go there. Hence, the change in my music. After a crazy beginning of the year and some heavy life situations occurred I started to give myself more attention.

It's the difference between writing about "how I would like everything to be lovely and perfect and that it's going to be OK," to "I can't believe you betrayed me like that, now I'm fucking the love away that you left me with"

I began to love what I'd lost again. The true meaning of my style and my music. To make people go to that place they don't want to go to. The art of relations. Another human being relating to another.  A shared meaning in life. 

My vestibule is my message in my music. My heart beat. For a while it flatlined, now it's pumping like a trouper!
It's good to be back!

Listen to Cry To Dream (Acoustic) and Drifting Away Ft. Laura Evans at www.krissearle.com and you will start to see where I am heading.
