Reno’s new song, “Deep Dive,” is about fear. The moment when you don’t know if you’ve got what it takes. The inner dance between the feeling of inadequacy and sudden unexpected bursts of strength.
It’s Indiana Jones looming over the canyon in The Last Crusade as he ponders whether to take that leap of faith.
It’s about living in a cage of your own making. The door is open and you could walk out, but you don’t.
“Deep Dive” is the first single I’m sharing from Counterglow, my new album, set for release on May 10.
It’s a record about anxiety, as well as a coming of age story. It’s not a concept album; there is no all-encompassing underlying lyrical intention. Each song is a simple representation of what I felt in the moment I wrote it. Some are rooted in fleeting and undefined dreams, some in harsh truth and dull realism.
I’ve been holding my breath for two years, and I’m finally about to exhale.
