The BRKN, a.k.a. Jacob Cade, recently released his debut single "Your Existence" and to celebrate we asked Jacob to tell us about the song. Here is the story:
This song has a special story behind it and came together in a very unorthodox way. Usually when I write tunes the music always comes first and then the lyrics. For some reason one day I was driving home from the studio late at night and I just started mumbling words to myself. Being goofy I started singing the words and out of nowhere the melody of the chorus came out. It was like a bolt of lightning to me I felt like it was really good and fun to sing. So on the 45 minute drive home I kept singing to myself and writing out the rest of the lyrics and parts. By the time I got home I had a few verses and this really catchy chorus. But still no music of course because I was driving lol. But I picked up a guitar and sort of molded out some progressions to fit the vocal melodies and magically it worked. Never, ever, had I written something in that way before so I knew there was something special about it. Above all, the lyrics are about a very special event in my life that changed almost everything. At the time I was really struggling with it and couldn't quite come to terms. I was angry and sad and confused. Basically all of the bad feelings a person could have I was having. This song and many of the songs on the record encompass that a lot. Eventually I figured out how to deal with and got through it like we always do. But I really enjoy the fact that it's all sort of a snapshot of that part of my life. Almost like a time capsule that will always be there. Music is incredible. I hope it helps someone out there in someway! - Jacob Cade
