Billy Keane’s “The Prilgrim Age” is an introspective and philosophical track with a steady midtempo pacing and gorgeously performed lush lead and harmonized vocals. The brass that joins the march that is “The Pilgrim Age” really brings the cinematic experience to the track. To me “The Pilgrim Age” is an epiphany.
Artist Quote
“I feel a change happening in our world. One that feels driven by the inherent human desire to recognize something bigger, something realer and truer, something far greater than the odd consumeristic, capital driven, superficial existence our society has a tendency to stumble into (or be led into). I am beginning to think of this time as the age of pilgrims, folks who are seeking out their own person journeys towards truth. Maybe this is a spiritual thing for some, maybe it’s something else for others. But its real, either way. It’s purposeful, purpose driven. A very real experience I had a as a child, was to find myself fallen into a place of utter fullness, peace, bigness. I was very young, I tried to explain this feeling to my parents, though the only words I had for it were to say that I was feeling “of big and small”. I lost that feeling for a long time, though with practice, with openness, with clarity, I can now come back to it. It’s a beautiful thing, and it’s a thing I can feel people looking for. This is a song that speaks to those people, the folks who recognize the deep connected natural of reality, the non-dualists, the ones who are seeking. This is for them, and I hope it brings them a sense of peace and comfort as they continue along their individual paths.”
