Rising musical prodigy Ethan Holt vows to move on from devastating heartbreak this week with the release of his new single ‘Shadow’.
Written by Holt along with Bill Maybury, Joe Kearns and Ricky Manning, the rousing, emotive pop bop sees the singer – who wrote and featured on recent Chase & Status and Gryffin tracks – lyrically shine a light on the denial felt after a difficult breakup, and also exposes the mask people use to cover up deeper emotions.
Laden with an infectious drumbeat and soaring melody, Ethan says of the relatable track: “The lyrics of this song capture the emotional journey of dealing with the sadness of trying to move on from a relationship. With lines like ‘running from you is like running from my shadow’ the song hits home for anyone who’s been through a tough breakup. The vivid imagery and genuine expressions make it an impactful anthem for those navigating the complexities of love and loss.”
