Breathe is the stirring power ballad that dares you to trust in the promise of tomorrow. This captivating track artfully blends tender guitar, soulful vocals, and graceful piano with a slow-building crescendo of resounding drums, a soaring choir, and orchestral majesty. It weaves an intimate message between hearts – a call to hold on when life seems to unravel”.

“Breathe, just breathe
You don’t have to make it all make sense ya’know”

“As Breathe unfolds, its delicate momentum transforms into a powerful climax, inviting you to shed doubt and embrace the strength of connection. This song is a bold celebration of resilience – a gentle reminder that even in the midst of chaos, hope can be found” – Stay For Tomorrow

The single was recorded, mixed and mastered in Dunfermline
with Dominic Hardy at Gracenote Studios.
