Singer-Songwriter Dan Croll Shares New Single “How Close We Came”
Liverpool-bred, Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Dan Croll first caught the attention of indie fans with his stellar 2014 album From Nowhere. Since then, he’s released two more albums and a few EPs, shifting his sound from guitar-driven indie pop to more focused singer-songwriter. His latest single “How Close We Came” finds the UK transplant in a more delicate and folk-centric world.
Stripped-back and strikingly direct, “How Close We Came” finds Croll reflecting on the end of a profoundly important relationship.
Speaking about the track, he said, “I’ve not had many serious breakups in my life, and most of my experiences have come through seeing friends around me going through quite explosive and toxic separations. In this case, after the initial heartbreak, it was something I felt quite proud of. We’d been through so much together and really grew into much better people, and so “How Close We Came” was about that period of looking back with pride on such a profound experience.”
Now almost five years living in California, his west coast influences have seeped into his songwriting, as the warm guitar rhythm evokes a summery energy, as his gentle vocals sit comfortably next to his American peers, such as Andrew Bird, S. Carey, and tinge of Sufjan Stevens.
