Let’s talk about the 4th song from our latest album “Concrete Flower”. Vaidotas was staying in Fuerteventura island for a month to find himself and get away from everyday life. Friends allowed Vaidotas to stay in their newly bought empty house, but warned that the place hadn’t had any repairs yet and that it was completely empty except for two chairs and two closets.
It was fine for Vaidotas, he borrowed an air mattress and embarked on the adventure. The house had been abandoned for a while, so the first task was sweeping hundreds of dead bugs off the floor, and getting rid of the dead rat in the bathroom.
Once the house was clean Vaidotas set up a small studio in one of the rooms. Being absolutely alone, he would climb the mountains in the morning to greet the sun, and wander the city streets and observe people in bars in the evening.
During the heat of the day Vaidotas would sit in his mini studio with curtains shut and write music. That’s where “Running From Myself” was born.
Vaidotas understood that he had great fear of living and dreaming, so it was sometimes easier to run from your thoughts. But they still gain on you.
