Vancouver troubadour Dan Mangan has shared "All Roads," the latest single from his album Being Somewhere.
The song mixes Mangan's acoustic troubadour roots with something a little more sonically adventurous, with a steady guitar-and-drums march fleshed out with swells of noise and ambience.
Mangan said in a statement about the philosophical tune, "It's absurd and beautiful how much consideration and yearning we place into a life so fleeting. In a billion years, it's all just space dust. No John Lennon, no Oprah. Relativity is infinite, and we are infinitesimal. And yet, in the here and now, how could anything matter more? This song is about being emancipated by the beautiful humility of littleness."
Being Somewhere is out October 28 through Arts & Crafts. See Mangan's upcoming tour schedule here.
