syd hartha releases brand new single “paruparo”
Far
from rehashing the hugot formula for
her own gains, syd hartha sets a blueprint for young singer-songwriters to
explore deeply personal and socially relevant themes in the face of troubling
times. Her work threads a road less traveled by peers and contemporaries in the
local music scene, navigating on narratives that are pulled straight from the
headlines.
“It got to the point where I realized it’s
time for me to step outside my comfort zone and make music with more power,
something that speaks to a wider audience and can make an impact,” the
eighteen-year-old folk artist takes a stand. “I’m given the opportunity to
share my music and help raise awareness on important issues affecting the
country. Since then, when something isn’t right or needs to be addressed, I
knew I had to do the best I could about it, and I do it mostly through my
music.”
syd
continues to take charge of her own musical and lyrical direction with the release
of her new single “paruparo” under Sony Music Philippines. With earthy,
stripped-down arrangements that soar toward a climatic plane, syd sings about
how the power of words or even the absence of it can change situations and
affect lives.
“If
everyone is aware of how we could use the freedom of expression that we all
have correctly, conflicts would lessen and understanding each other would be
easier,” says the outspoken singer-songwriter. “paruparo is a song to remind everyone to practice being responsible
with our words and considerate of how others could take it. I am a strong
believer that there is always a right time to speak and that some words are
better left unsaid.”
Recorded
and produced by Brian Lotho and Not Vinzons in Sonic State Audio, “paruparo”
features syd hartha on vocals and guitars, Raisa Racelis on bass, Pat Sarabia
on drums, Bea Fabros on guitars, and Jason Gildore on percussions.
syd hartha’s brand
new single is now available on all streaming and download platforms such as
Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, and Deezer.
