about

The debut-single “Breaking Eyes, Aching Smiles” from Homesickness’ forthcoming album “Blood Rush, Tempest Oceans” is a calm, rich folk song of incredible warmth - paying kind homage to 1960's-70’s artists
such as Nick Drake, John Martyn and Joni Mitchell - described by songwriter Malthe Junge as (...) a song written in the narrow space between fall and winter, an ode to the darkness which light follows, the ache of a tired heart and the hope of a new to come.” With a deep open tuning on a soft fingerpicked acoustic guitar, exploratory jazz-inspirered fretless-bass, lush atmospheric synth-soundscapes and analog flimsy tape noise, “Breaking Eyes, Aching Smiles” was written in the search for acceptance; of finding peace and strenght in newly-found solitude, or in Junges words “by starring into the cold bright sun, by carrying my heart unshielded, by observing its shadow”.

lyrics

The birds sings to the cold sun
Dressed in black
Praying for
The spring
To carry hope
For me
And
For you

Breaking eyes
Aching smiles
We part
For a better place
To rest our cries

I woke up
Where I left myself
Yesterday
Believing I
Would wake in tears and laughter
With you
With you
With you

Breaking eyes
And aching smiles
We part
For a better place
To rest our cries
