‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division

  ‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division In ‘The Journey,’ a sonic mosaic unfolds that—permeated by neon-soaked synth pads and a melody that feels like memory—is less a song than a spiritual compass. The time that relentlessly pursues us, according to ‘Time keeps chasing us every day’, is not portrayed as an enemy, but as a constant touchstone that we face with our heads held high: ‘ We won't let the rain wash us away’ . Photography, here metaphorically as a key to the past, opens doors to moments that seem long gone but live on within us. The chorus – a kind of collective mantra – describes not just a journey, but an intertwining of stories that support each other. The garden in which hopes take root becomes a symbol of what must be nurtured in order to flourish. And when ‘ our songs have lost a note or two ’, it is not a flaw, but proof of lived depth.

"Hope Will Find Its Way" by Andrew Patterson

NenesButler presents Music Blog

Hope Will Find Its Way

Exploring a new sound yet retaining his passionately heartfelt craft for writing songs rooted in honest and authentic lyricism, Andrew Patterson’s new track ‘Hope Will Find Its Way’ finds his touching vocals colliding beautifully with his effortless instrumental and storytelling which brings the tales to life.

Known best for the way he writes, he takes influence from the songwriting of Glen Hansard, Bruce Springsteen, and Foy Vance. He writes anthemic yet intimate, indie folk songs deeply rooted in hope, faith and love. This brand-new single is full of encouragement and on the way to turning more heads in his direction from further afield.

Andrew Patterson has been releasing music and gigging regularly across Dublin and Belfast for the last five years. Known for anthemic yet intimate songs of love and hope, his 2019 EP “Out of Babylon” was met with critical acclaim. 2020 saw Andrew writing new songs and ideas that would speak into the current worldview, and sharing these pieces to a growing audience. As a recipient of the Arts Council of Northern Ireland’s Individuals Emergency Resilience Programme funding, Andrew has been thankful for the opportunity to bring these songs to life.
