The Glasgow Iliad, the musical project of singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Aidan Kerr has grabbed our attention with the closing track, “Window” of the deeply emotional EP “Good Grief!” This song is a haunting and beautiful piece that perfectly ties together the themes of grief and raw emotions that run throughout the EP.
“Window” captivates listeners with its simple yet effective instrumental, which allows Aidan’s voice to shine. The melodies are haunting and the honest lyrics are incredibly moving, carrying the weight of grief and hopelessness in a way that feels real and relatable. The production is polished and professional, creating a unique atmosphere that amplifies the emotional impact of the song.
The track’s message, as Kerr explains, reflects the feeling of hopelessness during one’s lowest moments. The “window” serves as a metaphor for how grief alters our perspective, leaving cracks in how we see the world. This depth in songwriting showcases Kerr’s ability to craft songs that are not just beautiful but meaningful.
Aidan Kerr’s voice is truly a piece of art, so full of emotion and passion and it pairs perfectly with the instrumentation. It’s the kind of song that stays with you long after it ends, reminding you of the fragile beauty in life’s darkest moments.
