Harrison has also released a second song from the album, “Admiral of Upside Down.” According to a press release, “The flourishing orchestral song has the motion of a never-ending cycle, emblematic of personal growth and evolution, which offers listeners a perspective into Harrison’s own developments and introspective thoughts that he’s explored while creating the album. In crafting this solo project, he’s taken a deep dive into his own identity, and from that has emerged an audio experience of self-awareness.
“The record is about self-discovery, self-love, self-healing,” Harrison explains. “You can’t be loved until you learn to love yourself. You can’t help others until you learn to help yourself. It’s an introspective trip from where I was to where I am now. I had things happen during recording this that changed my perspective on everything.”
