Greetings dearest gentle readers and loyal music fans worldwide, let’s welcome Erick Duran Manard back to our blog. As a fan of his work, I enjoyed his album “A Road Without Any More Detours,” this record provides a dramatic and genuine depiction of Manard’s life experiences, ranging from spiritual victories to deep hardships. In his most recent original track, “Lament in the Weary / Light So Shine (Isolation Kills),” Erick Duran Manard, a gifted one-man band from South County, USA, displays his musical prowess. Erick incorporates cinematic and symphonic elements into his sound, drawing inspiration from classic rock and prog rock icons like Petra, King’s X, and Riverside. This distinctive blend makes him stand out in the music industry. This project was released on December 13. It represents a major turning point in Erick’s musical career.
The song opens with a stunning blend of sounds which makes you feel like you’re just relaxing in a waterfall
Erick distinguishes himself in the music industry with a distinctive blend of orchestral and cinematic influences. An important turning point in Erick’s musical career is this project. “Lament of the Weary / Light So Shine (Isolation Kills)” explores themes of overcoming fear, anxiety, and isolation in order to shine as a light in the world, and it is based on the potent message of Matthew 5:14–16. (”Jesus my King”)The single’s heartfelt lyrics and melodies provide fans a glimpse into Erick’s journey of faith and self-discovery while also reflecting his own battle with agoraphobia. We applaud him for sharing his experience
The song opens with a slow melody but then picks up, featuring electric guitar elements that are incredibly foot tapping Erick encourages listeners to embark with him on a life-changing musical journey that speaks to the universal as he ushers in a new era in his career.
“Lament of the weary/light so shine (isolation kills)” is more than just a song, it represents Manard’s resiliency and his faith. Agoraphobia is tough and difficult to navigate through. The book “the woman in the Window” by A.J Finn is about an agoraphobic woman who witnesses a crime through her window, crippled by her phobia she was unable to do anything except call the police. This phobia is no joke but through his faith, Manard is working through his phobia, especially with songs like these. Despite its catchy beat and profound lyrics, Manard shares his story and how his walk with Christ. Manard has made another deeply profound song and I can’t wait to listen to more and more of his music
