Danielle Durack – Broken Wings: Listen

Arizona singer and songwriter Danielle Durack has announced a new album and released the first single, “Broken Wings.” Durack co-directed and conceptualized the winking video herself.

The song is “a kind of wry take on my questionable taste in men,” Danielle explains. “The song is pretty self critical, like, ‘why do you keep doing this to yourself?’ But also pretty jab-y towards the men in question. It’s about wanting something that isn’t good for me.” Of the video, Durack adds: “A friend who used to work at a bridal store posted about a crazy closing sale, and I started thinking about creative ways I could use a wedding dress, which sparked the concept for this video. I had a really hard time deciding on how it should end, but ultimately, we went with a ‘The Graduate’ inspired ending where the excitement of the moment quickly fades after the ceremony, and the weight and permanence of my decision begin to sink in.”

No Place will be released on January 15th, 2021. Pre-order it on Bandcamp.
