Blanco White releases ‘Silver Beaches’
Blanco White’s new single, ‘Silver Beaches,’ is the second track from his upcoming album set for release this fall.
In a harmonious blend of cultures and musical explorations, Blanco White, the visionary artist known for his unique amalgamation of Latin American and Andalusian folk elements, has unveiled his latest single, ‘Silver Beaches.’ This entrancing track is the second glimpse into his forthcoming album following, ‘Tarifa.’
Reflecting on the genesis of the single, Edwards shared:
“I began writing this song with Pilo Adami in the summer of 2022. We’d done some recording sessions as instrumentalists in the past on Malena Zavala’s Abbey Rd sessions for her album ‘La Yarará’, and once on my own music, and I’d always thought it could be really interesting to try and write something together. I brought the verse organ progression from what would become ‘Silver Beaches’ into the session at Pilo’s studio, and we started working on the arrangement from there. I was really impressed by Pilo’s instincts, and I felt our taste overlapped in a really interesting way. Pilo is a multi-instrumentalist and producer from southern Brazil. Although he’s a phenomenal guitarist, his percussion playing and drum style left the biggest mark on the whole album. This was the first song we worked on together and it was incredibly exciting for me because I felt I had found a collaborator who could really help me develop my ideas and take the music to a new place. This first song was a catalyst for finding an identity for the whole album, and it became a gateway track leading to new ideas that might fit alongside it. Lyrically the track changed and evolved over time, but the lyric ‘Silver Beaches’ appeared early on. I was imagining a dream-like space of a beach at night. That surrealist image fed into the production and identity of the song, and I always felt I was picturing somewhere on a planet different to Earth.”
Blanco White’s new album Tarifa is out September 29th via Nettwerk. Blanco White will tour the new album this autumn with dates across North America and Europe. New single ‘Silver Beaches’ is out now.
