"Child Actor has been a guiding light and force for me and my creative process,"
"When he shared the beat, it was titled 'Orchard,' just as 'Low Threshold' was. The titles of his beats are always spot on and seem to set the stage. This time with the warm glow of a winter sun piercing through the clouds. I visualized an apple orchard melting into a singular vanishing point, and began to write. Thousands of individual trees bearing fruit, connected through soil and roots, with an expansiveness that resembles the infinite source."
The Sword & the Soaring will be released November 11 via Freedom Sounds as a follow-up to The Memoirs in Armour. The lead single, "Orchards," uses a beat by Child Actor and is accompanied by a meditative video directed by Maxi Hachem. Child Actor is credited as a guiding creative influence and provided a beat titled "Orchard," echoing a previous title, "Low Threshold." The beat titles are noted as evocative, inspiring imagery of a winter sun and an expansive apple orchard that informed the songwriting and thematic vision of the record.
