Float Away*

“Float Away” pairs moving, personal lyrics with dark, atmospheric cinematography and stop-motion animation to express the feelings of isolation and hopelessness that come with mental health issues like anxiety, depression and addiction. The song and the visuals started out as separate projects, but work together to show how even the smallest steps can start the journey out of despair and into wholeness. Ellie: “The song came to me on a very anxiety ridden night. As I started playing those opening chords, I felt so protected.”
