Following the release of collaborative LP, Always By Your Side in March 2024, the survivor-led Bracebridge, Ontario-based project, Chorus of Courage, is sharing new music featuring Cait Alexander.
Alexander penned “Two People” following a horrific experience where her ex-boyfriend nearly murdered her. “This song was written immediately after the shattering of my life. Following a violent act of abuse, writing music was the only thing that made sense to me,” she explains.
The stripped back piano and voice of “Two People” relays lyrics that capture an intimacy, juxtaposed with raucous and distorted guitar which represents the extremity and chaos of an abusive pattern. Alexander and Chorus of Courage sought to translate the entire spectrum of emotion that is often part of the abuse cycle: “the journey within is unpredictable and layered with intention and intensity.”
