Memorial is a UK-based folk duo who will release their new album Redsetter, on May 10th via Real Kind Records.
Ahead of its release comes single “Circle”, a gentle and warm piece of songwriting that has a gentle and affirming approach. It harnesses the warmth of bands like Pinegrove and Big Thief, with an expansive natural nature of its own.
Detailing the single, the duo adds:
“Circle was formed from a tragic series of events that happened to a family friend. They lost their partner and two dogs all in the space of a week. After hearing the news, this song seemed to ache its way out of our subconscious.
“Despite the pain we feel in bereavement, believing in the cyclical nature of energy provides a comfort that words often can’t. This song is centred around that feeling, being in a state of learning from a presence that’s not physically there and being able to keep the memory of someone with you to the point where it almost feels tangible without losing your sense of reality.”
