Dan Parsons
Melbourne via Brisbane singer-songwriter Dan Parsons has unveiled new single, ‘I’ll Live and I’ll Die’, and will now head off around the country on a co-headline tour with friend and fellow troubadour, Steve Grady.
“In a world where desire often leads to self-actualisation, ‘I’ll Live and I’ll Die’ finds the romance in ‘not going there’, even in the midst of an imaginary conversation. As a song, it ultimately accepts life as being more meaningful and more meaningless than human drama,” says Parsons of the new track.
