The five tracks enchantingly combine elements of R&B, folk, and country to take the listener on a dreamlike narrative made of pop culture allusions, cinematographic references, and universal themes.

Gordon Delacroix made the arrangements and produced all the instrumentals.

With every release, Nola Mann, who is driven by creativity and seeks to connect with her listeners on a deeper level, showcases the honesty and openness of her music. Her appealing voice and engaging instrumentation give the listener an emotional experience.

Speaking on the EP, Nola Mann comments, “The EP is about personal and universal traumas such as Depression, bad relationships, anxiety, and global mental health issues. It’s also about an inner world we don’t always share and sometimes struggle with alone. But it’s also about fighting our demons and trying to heal from them. Everybody is trying to heal from someone or something, everybody has traumas. I think mental health is still very much stigmatized and people don’t have to deal with it alone, dawn comes after dusk.”

Daria Mirea Shares New Single ‘Before It Gets Dark’

Published

Hailing from Romania, Daria Mirea caught national attention on the hit music competition show, The Voice of Romania, in 2018. Currently based in the UK, the singer-songwriter began her songwriting journey in 2020, before taking up guitar and attending London Music School, where she immersed herself in the world of crafting melodies that speak to the heart.

Daria Mirea returns with the release of her highly anticipated single ‘Before It Gets Dark’. She is currently channeling her creative energies into even more vulnerable, delicate, and honest compositions, with her second single.

‘Before It Gets Dark’ showcases Daria Mirea’s raw vocals in a dreamy manner to create a distinctive and captivating sound. The pop offering embraces the emotions of feeling sad and hopeful at the same time while transporting listeners into a realm of enchanting soundscapes.

The song embodies the wish to be a companion on people’s journeys of healing and development with its potent lyrics and poignant instrumentation on the catchy melody. The pop track features acoustic guitar, piano, violins, drums, bass, and electric guitar, along with Daria Mirea’s delicate vocals.

The majority of ‘Before It Gets Dark’ was composed on a chilly September evening as Daria Mirea thought back to the balmy evenings of the recently gone summer. She then worked with two amazing producers, Romanian-based Andrei Horjea and London-based Jules Konieczny, to create a track with an organic feel and production that matched her vision for the song: to support individuals on their journeys of growth and healing.

On the song, Daria Mirea comments, “From the intimacy of a warm summer evening to an ultimately withered September, ‘Before It Gets Dark’ details the intricate journey of coming to terms with heartbreak, encapsulating feelings of hopefulness, longing, and despair, all the way to acceptance. It evokes the universal truth that humans chase fleeting dreams, even though these can leave us in the dark if they don’t reach fulfillment. This song was my companion in my own journey of healing and growth, and I can only hope it will do the same for anyone in need, as I believe it is through accepting vulnerability and becoming more in touch with our feelings that we gain strength.”

Accumulating press coverage across the likes of Clout, Fame Magazine, and Send Me Your Ears, and support from local radio stations, Daria Mirea has presented herself as an exciting musical talent with a lot of promise for the future. ‘Before It Gets Dark’ was recently featured on  BBC Introducing Essex and Cambridgeshire as track of the week.
