San Francisco, California singer-songwriter/multi-instrumentalist David Benson, aka Said Sara, follows up last year’s eponymous EP and “I Star As You” single with new track “Bleedways,” a 4-minute dark/folk/pop/prog pilgrimage that leaves no soul behind.
“Bleedways” was born of necessity. Its roots scratched at Benson as if begging for expulsion. Its chords came almost instantly, and its shape morphed and refined itself until it breathed on its own. Its lyrical concept, similarly, is of purging. The spiral frustration from years of attempting to erase — to strikethrough — one’s past failures can ultimately lead to acceptance via ownership. We are as defined by our moments of horror as we are by our moments of peace.
