about

Less than a month after the release of their debut single, Riding Northbound have returned with a new track titled,

‘Sweet Surrender’

Shaun Klinger (guitar) dug deep into his musical roots when writing this Rock Ballad with powerhouse rhythm section, Chris Rourke (bass) and Mark Degiorgio (drums) holding down a solid groove. John McNamara delivers an incredible vocal performance that stands toe-to-toe with the Rock Gods of past generations.

This is just one of those songs you will have on repeat so you can sing-along to the chorus at the top of your lungs.

lyrics

I leave alone, a nowhere road,
Now I walk in fields I've sown.
I turned away from yesterday,
Leaving all that I've known.
As a new wind blows,
I whisper your name.
Letting go, what tomorrow knows.

Gently I wash away the night from day,
And hold to a fire still burning.
A turning wheel, knowing how it feels,
A season can change from yearning.

Sweet Surrender, worlds away from the great pretenders.
Sweet Surrender, all you gotta do is remember.
As a new wind blows I whisper your name.
Letting go what tomorrow knows.

Falling through the things I'd do,
I was blinded by disguise.
And truth behold as the path unfolds,
Finally I realise I'm free to feel that...

Sweet Surrender, worlds away from the great pretenders.
Sweet Surrender, all you gotta do is remember.
As a new wind blows I say your name.
Letting go.
