Fare is representative of that. It’s the price we way to pursue our passions.”
When asked about ‘You Are’, Fare stated: “This song is about trying to find confidence where you may not see any. So often I think that people look outward when trying to find their value in the world and forget that what really makes them is on the inside. It’s really a song about trying to show someone that they naturally own a room when they walk in, but don’t have the confidence in themselves to realize it, so the song is really just saying that you want that person just the way they are, inside and out”
‘You Are’ combines striking vocal melodies, fused with catchy lyrics and a toe tapping electronic synths. Showcasing flawless electronic production and alt pop lyricism, Fare come back stronger with every release and are certainly worth keeping an eye on.
