Gizmo Varillas returns with new single 'Out Of The Darkness'

Following on from the release of his brilliant sophomore album 'Dreaming Of Better Days' last year, singer-songwriter Gizmo Varillas has returned to deliver his first piece of new material for 2019.

The new single 'Out Of The Darkness' is the first time the frontman has moved out of his home studio, recording the track at the legendary RAK Studios in London, and is set to feature on a new studio full-length on the horizon.

Speaking about his return, he said, "'Out Of The Darkness' was one of the first songs I wrote for the album which set the tone and theme for the rest of songs that followed. The writing process was cathartic to me, as this was a difficult year in many ways. The title track and album subtly deals with issues like depression, anxiety, stress and mental health. Each song on the album depicts different shades of darkness and finds light therein. Ultimately it’s an album of hope and making it to the other side. It’s about transformation, from dark into light”.
