With a new EP, ‘Curate Calm, Create Chaos’, out November 1 (via Xtra Mile Recordings), Southampton indie-punk, Seán McGowan shares the first single from the release, ‘Silk’.
After the singer-songwriter found his life suddenly turned upside down by a series of monumental changes beyond his control, he reached into his soul and found the five new songs that make up the EP: ‘I’m OK’, ‘Heart Breaker’, ‘Silk’, ‘Money’ and ‘Queen of The West’.
“‘Curate Calm, Create Chaos’ was born from a particularly turbulent time in my life," he says. "A string of events knocked me for six. I identified five of the causes and used them as the foundations for songs. I always try to write honestly and personally. I feel like the only way someone could relate or engage with my music is if it's 100% the truth. 'CCCC' is about being self aware enough to accept things aren't right and trying your hardest to fix ‘em.”
