"Wake up because they rise in the night of the living, half dead, made of miracles"
The Half Dead EP is CATAPHANT's first EP under a new moniker and evolved song writing process. Originally a folk song writer, CATAPHANT collaborated with gifted producer and long time collaborator Ohmega Watts to produce a more eclectic, electronic sound that is closer to the diverse et of influences that shape r musical creativity. The project as recorded in Chicago, Seattle and Los Angeles
Thematically, Half Dead explores the idea that life can ultimately come from d**h when it's walked out in faith that a higher power holds both in the balance
"The Half Dead EP was written during one of the darkest years of my life. I was grieving the breakdown of several key relationships within my family and community, resurfacing & un-dealt-with past trauma, and overwhelming disillusionment where life had brought me. I felt the d**h of certain hopes, dreams, and ideals cloud my once bright vision. At the onset of this season, I knew that if I let myself be overcome with despair I would be crippled by it for years to come. I used song writing as a means to process pain as well as declare, out of faith, that the emotional d**h I was experiencing at the time would ultimately lead to life. Using Jesus as my example and anchor, I musically documented what I learned bout being healed, redeemed and resurrected." - CATAPHANT
