Del Water Gap releases single “Quilt of Stream” that comes off his forthcoming album I Miss You Already + I Haven’t Left Yet, arriving September 29. The harmonically rich “Quilt of Stream” was co-written by Arlo Parks and features her alluring, lush vocals. It was born out of the tour Del Water Gap supported for Parks’ first album with their shared aptitude for dreamy, pensive narratives creating a sweeping and melancholic ode to finding the beauty in the mundane. The track is accompanied by an abstract visualizer by Brooklyn based visual artist TraceLoops, watch it HERE.
Del Water Gap says, “Isa and I had toured together on her first album and became friends and discovered this mutual love for poetry and instrumental music…We had both been quite burned out when we first met and when we finally caught some time off and the color started returning to our faces we spent two days with Ethan Gruska. "Quilt of Steam" is what stuck. To me, this song is about coming off tour and feeling scrambled as hell and trying to find some balance and stillness in the midst of all that. It's about waking up in your own bed for the first time in months and noticing the little details you hadn't had the capacity to let in while everything was moving around you; lying in bed for a while and watching the steam rise off the radiator. Feeling the poetry come back to your mind. It's about finding beauty in the mundane but it's also about the treason of not acknowledging conflict, and trying to keep stoic even when you have no idea where you're going.”
