Hera - 'Coldest Evenings'
Award winning Icelandic singer songwriter Hera talks about coping with grief on gorgeous new single ‘Coldest Evenings’.
Subdued guitar lines lead into the track, lightly wrapping around Hera’s swirling angelic vocals, and give ‘Coldest Evening’ an air of serenity that quickly shifts gears as minimalism turns into a softly upbeat chorus inspired by 80s nostalgia. Groove-infused electronica and lightly soaring melodies speak of a quiet elegance while celebrating the depth of human emotion.
“’Coldest Evenings’ is about the comfort that can be found in a piece of clothing, the familiar smell and memory of a person gone,” Hera explains. “It’s about the end of a relationship and the small things that we cling to, to help us scramble through the heartbreak.”
