Leo Stannard - 'Gravity' (Single)
21-year-old multi-instrumentalist Leo Stannard releases ‘Gravity’, a collaboration with BRIT Award-nominated songwriter Frances, on Black Butter Records.
'Gravity' presents itself as a stripped back offering featuring bouncy guitar work and subtle production, slowly climbing towards an uplifting and breezy pop chorus. Both Leo and Frances' vocals are raw and heartfelt, providing sunny optimism and pure sentiment as the lyrical theme depicts a love that simultaneously feels liberating yet also providing a well-needed grounding influence.
Speaking about the track, Leo says: “I wrote ‘Gravity’ originally and then thought it'd be amazing to get a female vocal on it, but it had to be someone who really understood and felt the song. I wanted to make sure it really resonated with Frances as much as it does with me. She's an incredible singer and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out.”
Leo Stannard is versatile in what he can put his hand to, but consistent in that each song he works on is lovingly crafted and born from a place of honesty. The future seems to look very bright for him.
