New Found Glory’s Jordan Pundik & Songwriter/Author Alex Woodard Team Up for ‘Breathe the Sky’: Exclusive Premiere
The Americana-influenced track tells the story of a man’s unflinching optimism while dying from Lou Gehrig’s Disease.
“FOR THE SENDER: Love Is (Not a Feeling)” – the second installment of the ongoing music-meets-literature project of Alex Woodard – is shaping up to be one of the year’s most touching, unique releases. Accompanying the corresponding book is a CD of 13 songs, each inspired by a heartfelt letter. New Found Glory’s frontman Jordan Pundik lent his vocals to the stirring “Breathe the Sky.”
“This was a completely different kind of thing for me,” Pundik says, referencing the departure from NFG’s chugging guitars and sneering punk hooks. “I’ve always been into alt-country and Americana, and [the song] has that vibe. I was able to tone down my voice a bit, to not to belt so hard.”
