Behind The Tracks: 2 Shadows & The Veer Union - Marionette (Single) (2023)

Glen Bridden of 2 Shadows says “Marionette’ was a really enjoyable song to write - on the surface it has a great beat and puppet metaphors. Conceptually it's a rant about how people so often feel this obligation to do all these things that seem “right” to be successful, all the while without really knowing why you are doing them. It's what it feels like to be stuck in the middle of the blind leading the blind and being manipulated. The song is a call for people to stand out and stand up for who they are without letting their integrity be stolen out from under them”.

 

Crispin Earl of The Veer Union adds "It was great collaborating with 2 Shadows on “Marionette” - not only did I have the privilege of producing and co-writing this song with the band, but I have had a front row seat in seeing this band grow from the ground up! I personally think “Marionette” is a song that has the potential to really put 2 Shadows on the map, and I’m excited to see what’s in store for this band in the future”.
