Brent Walsh Releases New Single “Cloud’s Song”, Announces Solo EP + Tour

I the Mighty frontman, Brent Walsh, surprised fans today with “Cloud’s Song” – the first offering from his first solo release in four years, Are You Even There At All?. “Cloud’s Song” was debuted via an official video that chronicles a young boy dealing with the newfound absence of his father. It’s this story that forms the narrative of the emotionally jarring song that is brought to life through Brent’s command of melody and dynamic vocals over a thoughtfully picked acoustic guitar on “Cloud’s Song”.

Quote from Brent Walsh About “Cloud’s Song”:
Cloud’s Song follows a young boy as he struggles to cope with his father’s newfound absence in his life. Daily, he stares up at the clouds, as they convey stories to him, though each repeats with the same theme of someone drifting away, leading him to question the existence of God. I grew so connected to the song’s meaning and imagery that I ended up naming the EP after the central line of the chorus and designing the artwork around it.
For the video, I wanted to try to capture the same feeling of the night I ran away from home at that same age and the connection I felt with my mother when we were reunited.

Brent Walsh about Are You Even There At All?:
“My creative inspiration is constantly changing, but I have over a decade and a half of experience now writing bodies of work that reflect a certain period of my life. ‘7’ had a lot of sadness, and self-deprecation. ‘Are You Even There at All’ was written and recorded from a place of joy. Pain can be an incredible motivator. However, so can love”.

Walsh will be supporting Kurt Travis on the “Eternity Forever Fantasy” tour with additional support provided by Makari and, on select dates, Televangelist. The tour with kick-off in Austin, Texas on October 30th before winding its way around the country ending in St. Louis on November 18th.
