The Unlikely Candidates just released their new single “How I Am” from their forthcoming album, “Panther Island”, and to celebrate we asked lead singer Kyle Morris to tell us about the track. Here is the story:
I wrote this after one of my best friends took his life. I had never experienced this kind of grief and guilt before – I became the most depressed I’ve ever been. During this time, we were finishing our debut album and I couldn’t really bring myself to write much. I was struggling and chose to channel those feelings into “How I Am.” It was basically a journal entry of how I was feeling at the time.
