Singer/songwriter Brigitte Mena has shared a live acoustic version of “Sun On My Back” off her recently released album After The Storm. The live acoustic version was recorded at Café Solo Studios in Denton, TX.

She explains about this new version:

This is a stripped-down, live acoustic version of the track you’ll hear on the album. I actually first wrote this song on piano (which you’ll hear on this version), and once my bandmate Jake added his acoustic guitar and influence, it ended up having the original feel from when I first wrote it.

Brigitte continues:

‘Sun on my Back’ is about taking a risk on someone knowing that it may not end in your favor. It’s about being fully invested in a relationship and believing that the potential pain that may occur ultimately has a purpose. I hope this song gives a new perspective of what it means to love someone wholeheartedly.

Last week, Brigitte Mena released her third studio album After The Storm. The album features previously released singles “Mastermind”, “Honeybee”, and “Equally Human” alongside seven new tracks that “take listeners through the human experience.”

Mena released her sophomore album Element in 2020. While her bandmates, sound and style have evolved over the years, her “resolve to tell powerful stories has remained.”

She comments on the new album:

I create a story that is relatable to a wide range of listeners. These are songs I think we can all resonate with in one way or another.
