DAN MANGAN SHARES “IN YOUR CORNER (FOR SCOTT HUTCHISON)”
CANADIAN TOUR DATES WITH GEORGIA HARMER BEGIN APRIL 26
Dan Mangan’s new song “In Your Corner (for Scott Hutchison)”, is a direct response to the indie-rock anthem “The Woodpile” from Scotland’s Frightened Rabbit, and is dedicated to the outfit’s late and dearly missed songwriter, Scott Hutchison. With the lines ‘Leave a light on when it’s bad / We will congregate and make a plan / We’ll be in your corner’ Dan is replying to Hutchison’s question, ‘Will you come back to my corner? / Spent too long alone tonight‘.
“We’d only met once but Scott’s passing eviscerated me. He was my age and very close with several dear friends of mine,” says Mangan, “Either he couldn’t see how deeply he was loved by the world, or he didn’t feel worthy of it. How come he could bring joy to so many people but not to himself? I remember weeping as I poured cereal for my boys that morning. This song came very quickly in the days that followed.”
Produced by Drew Brown (Radiohead, Beck, Blonde Redhead), “In Your Corner (for Scott Hutchison)” is out everywhere now.
