“Houses” is the tender and poignant new single from singer-songwriter Nick Byrne. it features fingerpicked guitar with hushed, emotive vocals – and just a dash of electric guitar. The song explores themes of nostalgia and seizing the moment, and considers the sentimental significance of a house beyond its four literal walls. To Nick, a house is not just a home — and in some cases, it might not be. As the lyrics portray, a house represents history, family and belonging, and is a metaphor applicable to life in general.
