Blue Darling is a folk duet collaboration of Ezza Rose and her long-time lead guitar player, Craig Rupert. As Roses’ full-band sound expanded sonically over the past ten years, the two decided to form a songwriting outlet for their folk songs that recall their early days picking acoustic guitars and singing close harmonies(mostly around campfires).
Glide is premiering the new tune “Same Love,” composed of achingly beautiful two-part harmonies that recall that of Gillian Welch/David Rawlings. The light touch on the drums and the spacious electric guitar create an enveloping atmosphere with plenty of room for the all too relatable story to shine through. While walking away from a relationship always has its complexities, “Same Love” addresses them with simplicity and grace.
“The tune was birthed from the all too familiar story of people connecting at the wrong time. Ezza decided to do a month-long song challenge of writing, recording and sharing one song a day during her travels in Italy. This was the last song written after jet-setting to the other side of the globe to find out if the pilot light was still lit by an old flame. The song was written as a reminder to let things go when they aren’t filling your bucket. “I have learned relationships aren’t something you white knuckle…they are simply something that rests in your hand,” says Ezza.
