Escape is the latest solo single by Cork singer/ songwriter Pete Mac from Cork based alternative rock outfit Paradox. Featuring guest vocals from Big Sur’s Lisa Papineau, the track sees Pete experimenting with different sounds and creating a dark wall of melodies.
Escape was written during the Covid lockdown period. The track’s theme is about escaping into a world within a world or escaping within yourself. Featuring the haunting vocals of one of my all time favorite artists and musicians Lisa Papineau who recorded her vocals long distance from the US. The song initially was written as an acoustic track but soon developed into a wall of sound thanks to Brian Casey’s production at Wavefield Studios in West Cork and Lisa Papineau’s ethereal style vocals. For once I’m happy with something I wrote
