Expectations were high, and they were met with flying colors.
“The River” is a sonic adventure, blending the anthemic grandeur of Arcade Fire with the urgent rhythms reminiscent of Foals. From the first note, it grabs your attention and doesn’t let go.

Together, they craft an intricate musical journey that reveals new layers with each listen.
Sennen’s inspiration for “The River” is profoundly personal. He describes it as a “love song to life,” celebrating moments, friendships, memories, and our beautiful world. The autobiographical touch adds a layer of authenticity that draws listeners in.
