The Pull Of Autumn presents "Live Today", a stunning collaboration with Tokyo dreamgaze band Once Grace Forever

Art rock collective The Pull of Autumn presents their new single ‘Live Today’, a joint collaboration with Tokyo dreamgaze band Once Grace Forever. with a kaleidoscopic video created by Rosie Varela of acclaimed shoegaze band EEP.

This comes on the trail of the lead track – ‘Outlaw Empire’featuring The Pop Group legend Mark Stewart and bassist Doug Wimbish(Living Colour, Tackhead, The Rolling Stones, Sugarhill Gang), which is remixed by legendary producer Adrian Sherwood.

“This song celebrates living in the now and enjoying each day as it unfolds. Its rhythm gently unfolds into an anthem of soft lifting sound,” says Daniel Darrow.

“It was exciting to work with much younger musicians on this track as it helps build bridges musically from artists who span across generations to find a community bond in the craft of songwriting and musical production.”

In a never-ending search reaching every corner of the world, The Pull of Autumn’s architect Daniel Darrow came across Once Grace Forever while listening to independent radio. Preliminary contact, mutual admiration and talks of collaboration ultimately culminated in this song with Darrow giving it a dream-pop feel by slowing the song down and adding light synth textures and long harmonic trails to the body.

These initial tracks preview the band’s fourth album ‘Beautiful Broken World’, an ambitious 15-track undertaking that began in early 2020 and involves a number of iconic artists, including Philip Parfitt of The Perfect Disaster, Stuart Moxham of Rough Trade postpunk band Young Marble Giants, Luke Skyscraper James of I.R.S. recording artist FASHION and John Neff, who has contributed to multiple David Lynch films and is also a member of David Lynch’s Blubob.

The Pull of Autumn is a ‘super group’ of sorts, with songs orbiting around Rhode Island artist Daniel Darrow of Johanna’s House of Glamour and involving numerous emerging and notable musicians from the local music scene and further abroad. The band’s debut 2018 eponymous album was followed by ‘Afterglow’ in 2019 and‘Small Colors’ in 2020.

As of November 16, ‘Live Today’ will be available across online stores and streaming platforms like Apple MusicandSpotify (where ‘Outlaw Empire’ can also be found), as well as Bandcamp, where the “Beautiful Broken World’ LP (out on December 9) is now available for pre-order.
