Singled Out: Alarm Clock Conspiracy's Harlequin

Today Ian Reardon from NC Americana Power Pop group Alarm Clock Conspiracy tells us about the title track from their brand new album "Harlequin". Here is the story:

"Harlequin" Track 3 is the title track of the album. It was written in the late fall of 2012 while I was navigating a dodgy record contract and trying to keep my failing marriage afloat. The song is based on the concept of pressures building between a couple amidst the struggles of day to day life.

It's from a first person point of view with the narrator trying to convey a message that everything will get better if the other person would take the time to step back and focus on all of the good things in life as opposed to the bad. It's basically a plea for empathy with the main character feeling like the harlequin, or fool, of a passion play that is teetering the edge of disaster."

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album right here!
