Music Existence Because of Music, We Exist
Following incredible radio and playlist support for his ‘Out Of The Darkness’ single (released in May 2019), Gizmo Varillas returns with new single ‘Danza Da Sombras’ on August 30th.
‘Out Of The Darkness’ received plays on BBC Radio Two (Jo Wiley), BBC 6 Music (Chris Hawkins & Tom Robinson), BBC London (Gary Crowley), and Amazing Radio (Shell Zenner), plus was also added to the BBC Radio Wales A-List following plays from Janice Long & Adam Walton. Spotify added it to their ‘A Perfect Day’, ‘Discover With Friends’, ‘Feel Good Dinner’ and ‘FIFA 19’ playlists, Amazon Music added it to their ‘Introducing’ playlist, and Apple Music placed it on their ‘A List’ and ‘Breaking Singer Songwriter’ playlists. Additionally Gizmo recorded live sessions for Gaby Roslin on BBC Radio London and Janice Long on BBC Radio Wales.
And now, hot on the heels of ‘Out Of The Darkness’, comes ‘Danza Da Sombras’. The second single to be taken from his forthcoming third album, Gizmo explains “Danza de sombras means dancing shadows in Spanish. It’s a metaphor for the constant dance between light and dark, good and evil”.
“They say the eyes are the window to the soul… In Danza de Sombras I take a closer look, it’s a love song to the world and our humanity. There will always be shadows that walk beside us, but the important thing is to not forget the beauty that surrounds us”.
Take a listen to the sun-drenched, dreamlike harmonies, flamenco flourishes, and soaring chorus of ‘Danza Da Sombras:
