Dreamshade have released their new single Shanghai Nights, taken from their forthcoming album A Pale Blue Dot.
“The idea of the song came out while we were touring China last year,” explains frontman Kevin Cali. “We’ve been there three times before and wanted to create a Rock’n’Roll-ish track about life on tour: The travels, the shows, the relationship with our fans and the party.
“The song is about that nostalgic moment we live when the tour is over and it’s time to go back home. We always feel a hole in our chest on our way back, the type of feeling you get when you leave someone you love. We sit on the plane and think about all the people we’ve met, with the awareness that what we do is not only important to us but involves an ever wider circle of people.”
“Since part of our life is on the road we tried to capture that very essence in a poetic way to help the listener live through our experience,” he adds. “Me and the boys come from a very small town in southern Switzerland and traveling the World gives us experiences that we could hardly live otherwise. Really can’t wait to meet and hug all of our fans at shows like we used to do!”
