‘Head Above Water’ is a duet exploring the concept of time passing with an insight into two people’s journey of memories, echoes and cycles of the emotional and physical support we as humans desire in order to avoid drowning in our own thoughts.

‘Head Above Water’ represents the unbreakable bonds we create with people regardless of their relationship to us. Towards their last few breaths, these two individuals make the decision to depart together, whether that be physically or spiritually, their journey continues.
