Excerpt from an article on Tinnitist.com:

Halie Loren is awash in a sea of emotion on her new single and video Noah — premiering exclusively on Tinnitist.

“Noah was sparked into being after the death of someone I knew, and it was associated specifically with that person’s memory for me at first,” says the Alaska-born jazz artist of the song. “But as the song became more fleshed out, I started to see it as containing a more universal story involving the literal and metaphorical washing away of a world, which is something that everyone experiences in some way.”

Especially now, she suggests.

“It wasn’t lost on me that the song happened to come into being just as the news cycle was reporting on a deluge of natural disasters (including record flooding), wars, and destabilizing events around the world forcing mass numbers people to flee their homelands in search of safety. The visibility of these world events clarified what the song ultimately symbolizes for me, which is that even the most solid feeling reality, the best-laid plans, can crumble in an instant, and one has to both allow themselves the space grieve and to move forward in order to survive it, but these two things are almost impossible to manage simultaneously.”
