News: Ashton Nyte shares personal song from the vault
“I’d like to shine a light on a song that got a little lost during the post-pandemic transition a few years back,” shares Nyte. “It is one of the most personal, raw and emotional songs I’ve written, and I was only able to perform it once, and that was in the studio. Similarly, I made the video in a single take. I then added some shots of a young Tristan (my son) playing a very young Ashton (me), and that was all the video needed.
“The song is called ‘Trapped Inside the World,’ and it is about coming to terms with the full picture of someone you’ve lost. Both the good and bad parts. It’s also about childhood, growing up and some of the baggage we carry long into our adult lives. The song has a desperation to it, but it is also cathartic in many ways. Here’s to all of us who continue to navigate this brutal and beautiful life. If the song speaks to you, please share it with someone you think would appreciate hearing it.”
