Lily Seabird continues to captivate audiences with her latest single, "The Afterglow," which showcases a return to her mellow acoustic sound. The Burlington-based singer-songwriter, who gained attention with her previous singles "Lightspheres On Their Way," "Election Day," and "Portal To The Past," has been influenced by various sources, including the death of folk legend Michael Hurley. In "The Afterglow," Seabird draws inspiration from a car accident she witnessed near her home, where a vehicle crashed into her yard.
The song's narrative revolves around the concept of letting go and the lingering glow that remains after a light has faded. Seabird collaborated with artist tes Galucci, who suggested the idea for the accompanying music video. Filmed in the same neighborhood where the "Trash Mountain" music video was shot, the video features Galucci walking around, reminiscent of the lightspheres that had inspired Seabird.
"The Afterglow" is set to be released physically on September 4th and digitally on October 2nd via Lame-O Records.
