Erin’s evocative lyrics and soulful melodies offer listeners a poignant glimpse into her journey, navigating the challenges of a relationship amidst the tumultuous backdrop of lockdown.
Inspired by the profound experiences shared with her partner during the hardships of lockdown, “Seek My Heart Out” reflects Erin Elliot’s unwavering commitment to love and connection. “It was incredibly trying on our relationship for a variety of reasons, but mostly as it affected our income streams as we worked together and ran our own business,” shares Erin. “In the end, the foundation is so strong that we managed to pull through and come out on the other side stronger.”
Crafted during a soul-searching trip to Bali, Erin penned the song independently, showcasing her innate talent for songwriting and storytelling.
