Far Caspian - the project of Irish musician Joel Johnston - recently announced details of his new album Autofiction which will be out on July 25th via his own Tiny Library Records (22º Halo, SOMOH). Sharing the record's lead single ‘First Day’ we get a sun-kissed look in to what lays ahead with its hazy vocals and melodic guitar melodies that light up the room. “I wrote ‘First Day’ one morning after dropping my partner off at her new job. She was in a transitional period where everything felt so daunting and raw. At a similar time, I was starting a new medication for my Crohn's disease that required me to go to the hospital and get infusions every 8 weeks,” the now Leeds, UK-based Johnston shares. “The first time I went, my partner was the one to drive me. I wrote this song as a reminder of how we have each other's backs and best interests at heart, regardless of how unsure we may be about what's ahead.” Take a listen for yourselves below.
