Quinn Sullivan, the virtuoso singer-songwriter and guitarist, has just unveiled his latest single, “Half My Heart,” from his upcoming album ‘Salvation,’ due to drop on June 7th under the Provogue/Mascot Label Group. This track serves as the emotional cornerstone of the album, delving deep into themes of heartbreak and resilience following the dissolution of a once cherished love.
“‘Half My Heart’ encapsulates that profound ache of losing someone you once held so close,” Sullivan reflects. “The lyric ‘you didn’t have to steal ‘cause you had the key’ really encapsulates the essence of the song for me. It’s about the pain of giving your all to someone, only to be left empty-handed. It’s a sentiment many of us can relate to.”
This release comes hot on the heels of the announcement of Sullivan’s fifth studio album, ‘Salvation,’ which has already been praised for its raw emotion and musical sophistication. Born from personal tragedy, ‘Salvation’ serves as a testament to Quinn’s growth as both an artist and a person, channeling grief into a powerful source of inspiration. With “Half My Heart,” Sullivan continues to explore the themes of love, loss, and redemption that permeate the album.
In recent years, Quinn Sullivan has not only dazzled the music world with his guitar wizardry but has also emerged as a captivating storyteller and songwriter. From his early days as a blues prodigy touring with legends like Buddy Guy, Sullivan has evolved into a mature artist capable of conveying profound emotional truths through his music. Each release sees Sullivan pushing the boundaries of his craft, blending his blues-rock roots with introspective songwriting.
“Half My Heart” follows in the footsteps of “Dark Love,” a track that delves into the intoxicating yet tumultuous nature of toxic relationships. “We’ve all been there,” Sullivan remarks. “It’s a tale of two people who shouldn’t be together but are drawn to each other like moths to a flame, despite knowing it’s destructive.”
With “Half My Heart,” Sullivan once again demonstrates his mastery of storytelling set to melody, all against the backdrop of his signature guitar skills. The announcement of this single follows the release of the album’s first track, “Salvation (Make Me Wanna Pray),” a soulful anthem that showcases Sullivan’s ability to honor rock and soul traditions while forging his own path within the genre.
As Quinn embarks on a nationwide tour, “Half My Heart” is poised to become an anthem for those navigating the turbulent waters of love and heartache. His live performances offer an intimate glimpse into the soul of an artist unafraid to lay bare his heart and share his journey with the world.
