“All four members of Earthside contributed significant compositional ideas to ‘A Dream In Static’, and the melodies and lyrics Dan so expertly delivers are also a reflection of that collaborative writing style, with three of the four of us also writing the vocal ideas as well.

‘A Dream In Static’ seems to be one of the songs on the record that most immediately catches people and elicits a strong emotional response.
