The Strayaways share a new single titled "Softly." This is a song about getting through the unresolved feelings, jealousy, nostalgia, and acceptance of the fact that someone you once loved has taken a different road. It begins with a moment we all know but rarely articulate. We don't feel the weight of that encounter in grand gestures, we feel it in restraint. The writing also knows when to pull back just enough to let the emotion breathe. Instrumentation is no different, understated, deliberate, keeping the story in the forefront.
