“Don’t get too close…” sings CALL ME DIO with a designed vocal soundscape, as he opens his latest single always on the run. The song expands into a progressive pop-R&B vibe as DIO sings about his reality and inability to make meaningful connections due to growing up on the road.
Speaking on the themes of always on the run, CALL ME DIO tells us that the track “shows the dark/sad side of growing up on the road where bad/good things constantly happen, what you now hear is the product of such lifestyle.”
The song features an epic guitar solo finale, which really dimensionalizes the track, and delivers heightened emotion from the artist who was born in Brazil, and has lived in Italy and Portugal, hence always being on the run.
Asserting his boundaries and showing vulnerability at the same time, always on the run is the rising artist from London’s second song out this year as part of his debut project where he says “storytelling is the driving factor” and how “coming of age and state of flux mark the sound and lyrics”.
DIO expands, “I’m proudly on the other side of the story in a place where I can tell it, sing it and perform it with no weird feelings at all, my story is just like many others out there and I’m just hoping these songs somehow work like bridges connecting our worlds together building some type of community.”
