Flyte return with new single, "I'm Not There"

Offering themselves just two intensive months in between touring to write a new record, the British duo headed down to the West Country to work with the BRIT Award winning producer Ethan Johns (Paul McCartney, Ray Lamontagne, Laura Marling) at his home studio.

“Although regular therapy and the ever-enlightening practice of songwriting has helped me immensely over the years, a lack of self-love, self-forgiveness, and the baggage of family trauma still hangs around - sometimes heavily," says Will Taylor. “This song was written under a particularly dense cloud, with a rainy brain. I was draining my subconscious, not present in the slightest. From the few times we’ve played this song live, it’s been noteworthy how male leaning people of all ages have been quick to tell us about their immediate connection to it - make of that what you will.”

“What may also be interesting to some is that it’s a fully live performance, cut right at the start of the album recording session. We played it once and once only, and that’s all the listener hears bar a single piano added later," he continues.

"Nick, Ethan and I hadn’t played as this trio before and you can hear us introducing ourselves to each other, figuring the whole thing out as we played. Ethan, as well as being a sensational producer/engineer is an experienced, emotionally intelligent drummer, which provided a safety net that allowed us to step blindly into the performance with no preparation. It’s taught us that there, in that risky place, is where the truth is most easily coaxed out of us.”
