Today, Harrison Brome unveils the follow-up to his July EP Strange with the release of new single, “In The Dark.” The pop savant takes a melancholy tone as he croons longingly for his lost love. The song embodies late-night energy with wispy guitar lines and hushed vocals. “In The Dark” sees Brome teaming up once again with frequent collaborator and Grammy-winning producer Pomo (KAYTRANADA, Mac Miller, Anderson .Paak). Listen to “In The Dark” on all digital retailers (here).
Harrison Brome gives additional background on the song’s inception:
“I wanted to write about the footsteps of a stalker who hides in the shadows of an ex-relationship. Following and watching as their relationship grows apart and moves onto the next, there is this feeling of being left alone in the dark. I was inspired by The Police “Every Breathe You Take” where the song sits in this elegant and melancholic delivery, but has somewhat of a sinister undertone with the writing. This was actually one of the first songs that I had written coming into the pandemic and thought it would fit well with the new direction I’ve been moving in musically.”
Many people describe music as a lifeline — but few mean it in the way that Harrison Brome does. Music has been integral to the life of the 25-year-old producer, songwriter, and vocalist since he found out he had dyslexia at an extremely early age. Struggling with reading and writing at a young age, Harrison’s mother bought him a karaoke machine; singing out words and reading while he sang became integral to managing his dyslexia.
