Spirit Award is the moniker for Seattle-based singer/songwriter Daniel Lyon, who is prepping the release of their new album The Fear, which will be released on May 19th via Share It Music.
The latest single released ahead of the LP’s release is “Guilt And Shame” a blend of industrial-driven electronic rock with a swagger and punk rock edge distilled into something distinctly very much its own thing.
Speaking on the tracks’ meaning, Lyon adds:
“For me this song is about having mental clarity, or a realization that changes your perspective on the world, yourself or your life view. Growing up I was taught to feel guilty and ashamed for a lot of things in my life that no one really should. So when I wrote this song I wanted to channel all that negative energy and channel it into something that felt freeing. It’s sort of a proclamation song for anyone going through a transitional period, or that needs to let out some unwanted energy that’s been holding them back.”
