The Backseat Lovers Release “Close Your Eyes”.
Written by: Sarah Evangelista
The Backseat Lovers recently released their new single “Close Your Eyes”. It tells the heart ranching tale of a mother watching her son grow up and venture on his own.
“We were both singing about the same sort of feelings,” recalls Joshua Harmon. “Our relationship with our parents, and our perspectives in that moment of seeing ourselves turning into adults. It was a bit of an affirmation from the universe, realizing that these two songs could be the same song – and that really sparked what ended up being the entire backbone of the record, which was Jonas and my songwriting partnership and companionship.”
