This was inspired by my own personal experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first track entitled <strong>&#8220;Under The Surface&#8221;<\/strong> characterises the heavy, dark mood of severe depression. The second track entitled <strong>&#8220;Playing With Fire&#8221;<\/strong> draws the listener into the world of mania with an urgent, energetic pace that crashes and burns.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both tracks were produced in the recording studio with myself on piano, vocals and string arrangement. My collaborators were <strong>Anielle Saminaden<\/strong> on backing vocals, and <strong>Jai Cole<\/strong> on guitar and drums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aim of my EP is to act as therapy for myself and any listener who may relate, and to promote understanding and empathy towards those with bipolar disorder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Artist bio Natalie Searle is a singer\/songwriter and pianist with a passion for pop ballads.
