New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Set to release his debut album It Isn't Home August 28, Argentinian American singer-songwriter
Diego Davidenko continues searching for a home he never knew. Davidenko takes listeners on a journey through his own experience living in
America with soft, free-flowing acoustic melodies and meaningful, personal lyrics.
To fully encapsulate his musical goals, Davidenko quotes Yip Harburg, "Words make you think a thought.
Music makes you feel a feeling. A song makes you feel a thought." While he did not set out to center on the concepts of seeking home, connection, and love, these themes consistently find their way into Davidenko's words. Davidenko draws on desires which are either never found or are discovered to be red herons. This leaves listeners with a sense of longing and isolation, a feeling which Davidenko believes to be a common experience, while serving as a reminder for the lost listener that they are not alone.
Opposite the theme of lack of love and connection featured in many tracks off It Isn't Home, Davidenko's single "I and You" lures listeners into a slightly unreal state of mind full of innocent love and warm memories. While the single remains chorus-less, "I and You" relates the story of two lovers staring over the sea reflecting the setting sun beautifully against a moonlit night sky.
