Everytime I look out that window
I think about flying through it
How long would it take
To know that I’m away from here

Sat above the tensing shoreline
With the wind shining bright
Your eyes held in mine
I couldn’t leave if I, tried

Everytime I look for your face
I become lost in the week
Feels like an endless chase
To make me more complete

Sat above the tensing shoreline
Winter sun in my eyes
The sky is held in me
I couldn’t leave if I tried

Featuring bedroom production and mixing in Sussex Studio A, ‘Columbus’ combines intimate recording with a polished mix. The track’s more stripped back arrangement allows for space to breathe between the layered bass guitar and other instruments. Chorus laden bass VI underpins the driving rhythm as further instrumentation is slowly added.

Lyrically, the track delves into the feeling of uncertainty in your early twenties; the contrast of being a fully grown adult yet never feeling more confused and daunted by the world before you. On the inspiration for the new single Archie says:

‘I wrote Columbus when I felt my most aimless. I was working as a chef in a restaurant where all the other staff were in their teens. Without any clear purpose or future plans for jobs or careers, I felt down and wanted to go away and magically find some purpose. Columbus was an exploration in running away across the sea. The track takes its name from the Kogonada film where the main character is struggling to leave the town and make something with her life – I really connected to the film’s beautiful visuals and subtle storytelling and it was a big inspiration for the music video.’
