New album, Chasing Dreams & single, “Starlight Girl” out now
Vancouver folk-rock musician Etienne Siew is pleased to share his debut album Chasing Dreams out now on all digital streaming platforms. Listen to the full album here.
Etienne is also showcasing “Starlight Girl” as the 3rd feature single from the album, a track that leans heavily into 70s AM radio influences, resulting in a laid-back love song that feels straight off the Almost Famous soundtrack.
“This is a rocking tune for all the love birds and hopeful romantics out there,” says Etienne. “I believe the right person comes into your life when they are meant to, they are just walking through the clouds somewhere in the world, slowly making their way to you. This was my call to the universe, to keep that person safe until your paths crossed.”
Etienne’s winding path from kinesiologist/coach to singer-songwriter is reflected in his debut album Chasing Dreams. In this project, Etienne aims to share his reflections as an independent artist and explores the themes of healing, empathy, resilience, and social and environmental justice, which were amplified during the wake of the pandemic.
Says Etienne:
“Chasing Dreams draws attention to and celebrates our connection with our environment and with each other, despite our differences, inspiring audiences to consider their own experiences in these themes. The Album represents the many universal lessons I have transformed into songs from spending time in nature, working with people from all walks of life and pursuing the exciting and challenging path of an independent artist. This project also represents the continued mindfulness and growth I continue to keep at the forefront of my mind, as I develop into the artist I want to be.”
