Q: What was the inspiration for the song Drowning man? A: Its a song written by myself and Rich Cowdrey. We wanted to create something a bit eerie. We found the opening synth sound and thought that it was reminiscent of being out on the ocean surrounded by fog. Dave Redding and Rich added some masterful guitar tracks with real emotion to it. I locked into the mood and built the lyrics around the drowning man hook. Essentially it is a song about solitude, self doubt and desperation.
