[SONG OF THE DAY] Laux - "A Long Way From Love"

Last week Wexford, Ireland singer-songwriter Laux has unveiled, “A Long Way From Love”, the followup track to his debut single, “Rain”. While “Rain” gently introduced us to his striking vocals, “A Long Way From Love” is where we get to see that he knows exactly how to use it to leave you straight up shook. While the song is quite raw from a songwriting standpoint, I don’t think I would be as equally devastated every time the chorus ends if someone other than Laux were singing this. Born out of confusion and heartbreak back in 2017, the track encapsulates the heart wrenching moments of a relationship’s painful end. Laux shared, “The song is about me trying to move on from what I thought was a broken relationship and something that could easily be replaced, only to realize that what we had was irreplaceable and just ‘A Long Way from Love’”

Both “A Long Way From Love” and “Rain” are from his forthcoming debut EP, Rain, which is due out later this year.
