Produced by Chris Cubeta and Nick Africano and recorded at Brooklyn’s GaluminumFoil studio with a who’s who of Americana sidemen including drummer Spencer Cohen (the Lone Bellow), pedal steel player Thad DeBrock (Rosanne Cash, Suzanne Vega), and guitarist Jeff Berner (Caleb Hawley, the Ramblers). But the set’s focus is squarely on Syms’ dark-honey dappled voice and her songwriting. Haunting vocals and beautifully crafted arrangements sweeten 10 tales plucked from the grit and grind of real life.

Real Bad Low

Almost Home

Way Back Home

The Game

LYRICS
Way up north where the wind is cold
where the winter blows
left my heart in the frozen rain
boarding the plane

Way down south where the willows grow
where the whistle blows
left my heart in the salty sea
only again to find me

I’m here, I’m there, I’m everywhere
not sure which way to go
I’m near I’m far, my own north star please save me
onward down the unknown road

Way out East
where the land is old
where the leaves are gold
left my heart in the open sky
in the chill of the night

Way out west where the desert's dry
where the coyotes cry
left my heart in the painted plains
the spirit remains

I’m here, I’m there, I’m everywhere
not sure which way to go
I’m near I’m far, my own north star please save me
onward down the unknown road (x6)
(she cried, there was a light in her eyes, upon the earth she placed her hands)

Unknown Road

Fourth single from upcoming album The Darkest Light (2022). Where Do I Belong is an existential question we all ask ourselves from time to time. Whether it’s where you live, what your career path is, who your tribe is, or even questioning what you're doing on this crazy planet, it’s an insecurity and vulnerability humans share. We all want to belong. Single will be released on May 6, 2022. Learn more at sarasyms.com/epk

LYRICS
Where do I belong, where is my place
out on a ledge, in this open space
land for you and me, fighting to be free
our hopes and dreams, for what we want to be
I said where do I belong
I said where do I belong

I lie awake and wonder why
my heart feels the way it does down deep inside
confusion sets in, where shall I begin
am I just another face, tryin' to find my final place
I said where do I belong
I said where do I belong
I said where do I belong
I said where do I belong

Just like the old man and the sea
the phoenix rising from the ashes to be free
I'll find my way, just gonna take a little time
I'll carry on, right on down the line

oh where do I belong, where is my place
out on a ledge, in this open space
land for you and me, fighting to be free
our hopes and dreams, for what we want to be
I said where do I belong
I said where do I belong
I said where do I belong
I said where do I belong

Where Do I Belong
