The Gray Havens To Release First Original Music In Two Years
The Gray Havens are thrilled to announce the release of their new single “Anywhere” on March 1st, 2024. This highly anticipated kick-off to their new album cycle marks their first original release in over two years.
Distinguished for their ethereal melodies and poetic lyricism, their unique blend of storytelling has captured the hearts and imaginations of listeners around the world since 2013.
The Gray Havens’ David Radford shares “This is the most personal song I’ve ever written, and perhaps the song I’m most proud to have recorded. It’s a song with a twist. The lyrics start out centering on my struggles with heartbreak/chronic pain/suffering/loss and the desire to escape it all (take me anywhere but here) but then realizing maybe the best place I could be is right where I am by the end of the song (don’t take me anywhere but here).
It has some Peter Pan illusions woven in throughout – we almost called it “Neverland. I hope it finds where it needs to go.”
“Anywhere” was mixed by Grammy-winning Tucker Martine (known for his work with The National, Sufjan Stevens, Madison Cunningham, Gregory Isakov and The Decemberists)
