NEW TRACK 'RADIO' FROM EMERGING LUXEMBOURG ARTIST CHAILD, VIA BONFIRE RECORDS.

 

“Radio” opens with the velvety baritone voice of CHAiLD ringing out over a minimal production, reflecting on his newfound success as a musician. Press play and enjoy the track just below. 

 

 “Radio’s” melodic sensibilities are refined, and airtight. The songwriting team has created something that lives in your ear once its entered. While this alone is enough to carry the tune, the real pleasure of “Radio” lies in CHAiLD’s one of a kind vocal performance. CHAiLD’s voice is one that is hard to accurately describe (much like the voice of other world class singers). Its rich without being weighty, mature but full of youthful potential. It fills the space of the song with the purple, maroon, and deep blue hues of one’s first love gone astray. 
I started writing the song after realizing that the recognition I would get for my music would not fix the way I feel about myself, that I should not rely on others’ approval to feel good about myself.
The song was inspired by many different events but all in all, it’s about wanting people to understand how you feel and still feeling lonely even if one is experiencing success in his career. It is also about the feeling of never being enough no matter how much one achieves and the fear of abandonment.
The first time I sang this song was when I opened for singer-, songwriter Dean Lewis. Even if it was only a stripped down version on the piano, the feedback from fans was so huge that we quickly realized that we had to produce it asap. That’s how Radio was born.
