“while this song is about the experience of alienation in grief, for us it’s also about collaboration, support, and the love in this band.”
Bay Area rock trio Sour Widows’ new release “Witness” is an emotional, slow-burn of a song, showing that writing music together can be a cathartic way to come together after personal tragedy. The song quietly builds anticipation with melodic guitar strumming and vocal murmurs, culminating in an intense climax of intertwining vocals and thunderous guitars, followed by a soft release. You can catch Sour Widows with Olivia Kaplan and Diners at Eli’s Mile High Club tomorrow night.
