After a breakthrough year delivering a string of powerful singles, Gold Coast via New Zealand
rapper Saint Lane has delivered his debut EP, If I Leave You In The Fire. Featuring previous cuts ‘When Did We Grow Up?’ with Robbie Miller, ‘Hickeys’, ‘The Family’ and recent release ‘Altar of the Heartless’, the collection also features two new tracks; ‘The Fire’ and ‘The Water’.
The artist, whose real name is Lane Muir, explains If I Leave You In The Fire as “a story of loss, grief and moving forward”.
“In 2019, my father died completely unexpectedly from acute pancreatitis with no previous health issues,” he continues.
“I had less than an hour to make a decision for my dad to have a surgery to save his life, however he died during the surgery and I immediately felt a feeling beyond guilt. I felt solely responsible for the death of my dad and watching my family mourn, I believed I was to blame for our loss. The EP covers the stories and emotions of the most difficult time of my life.”
