Field Medic shares poetic new single ‘Castle Peaks’ ahead of upcoming album

Field Medic—LA-based singer-songwriter Kevin Patrick Sullivan—has released his latest single ‘castle peaks,’ offering a tender and introspective preview of his forthcoming album surrender instead, due August 8th, 2025.
Quickly following his previous release, ‘MELANCHOLY,’ ‘castle peaks’ finds Field Medic reflecting on a personal journey through Europe taken during a self-imposed touring hiatus in 2024. The result is a song that beautifully captures the contrast between changing landscapes and the inescapability of the self.
Sullivan explains:
“Part of my recent mental break from the music business was taking the entirety of 2024 off from touring. For the longest time, my fiancé wanted us to take a vacation to Europe, so we finally did that spring. I spent the trip writing short observations & poems all along our European route, and when I came home, I pieced them together over a guitar part that I’d been slowly composing over the last few months. The verses are comprised of the poems describing what I observed literally, but the chorus speaks to the constant search for our place in the world, and how changing locations doesn’t always take us away from ourselves.”
‘castle peaks’ is available now on all streaming platforms, with surrender instead available for pre-order ahead of its August 8th release.
