London singer, musician and producer Fran Lobo makes her return with the spacious track ‘Brave’. With a looping piano riff and echoing claps continuously running throughout the song, Lobo uses the open space to highlight her incredible vocals, with the track embodying a meditative feel in its own right. The tune is the title track of her upcoming EP, which is out June 19th on Slow Dance Records.
Regarding the song, Fran Lobo said:
“This was a mantra to myself, to stay Brave because there is no other choice in the face of our world and diminishing relationships. The world moves on and we have no choice but to move with it. It is also a comment on the intense expectations on women; what to be and what not to be. With everything going on at the moment, I wanted to dedicate this track to key workers and those working hard to keep us safe. My Dad works in a care home where there has been little PPE and going to work has felt like an everyday risk, to honour the brave people working in these conditions, I’m donating 50% of band camp revenue to Age UK.”
