ISLAND IS OUT EVERYWHERE!!!!!
wow… i wrote this song when i was quarantined and in a bigggg relationship anxiety spiral in my bed in 2020. i can’t believe that everyone finally gets to hear it… i’m so grateful for all the help i’ve had along the way.
thank you to the amazing @steph.marziano for producing the track, to @tomtarcher for mixing, to @katietavini for mastering.
thank you to my brother @hxpefully for creating the concept for the artwork (and adapting after i dislocated my shoulder the day before the shoot🤪), to @solomonwarner for photographing and making the vision a reality and to @sl333pingbeauty_ for styling myself and Iphigenia (the mannequin) and to my mama @carriegrantsays for doing my hair!
i wrote this song fresh off a broken heart and at the start of some intense and achey, whirlwind situation… and last night i released this song - my heart so full, surrounded by the people i love, by those who have supported me so deeply in ways i didn’t know possible. this song is like a landmark for me in how much can change in not so much time. thank fuck for that.
STREAM ISLAND NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️
release day !!!!!!!!! i took so many photos that i want to post of our time making this but i’ll start with these.
i have been undone in deepening waves by @survivingearthfilm . thea’s writing stirs my stillness and touches something at the heart of me.
there is openness and honesty. there is tenderness and integrity.
from my first time reading the script to my third time watching the film, i am undeviatingly drawn in by vlad, by music, by friendship, by fatherhood, by the grappling and tension involved in striving to survive earth.
this film was made with deep love, the openness and warmth on our set was like nothing i’ve ever experienced and i am so grateful for every single person i got to work with and most especially, to @slavkosobin and to @theagajic , my north stars.
if you can, watch this film in cinemas. watch it with your friends, watch it by yourself, watch it with your family, watch it on a date and tell your friends and loved ones and neighbours and letterboxd followers to watch it. x
‘We were really looking for someone who we could all fall in love with on screen. Slavko did that.’
Writer-director Thea Gajić and lead actors Slavko Sobin and Olive Gray on working together on the deeply personal family drama, BFI-backed Surviving Earth. Released across the UK and Ireland from 24 Apr.
