Tarja:
“With At Sea I take you on a journey where you will confront the unknown. It’s a complex song where emotion sits in the front seat of a big rollercoaster. I know I will challenge you with this one… are you ready?”

In a time when songs can be generated in seconds, At Sea was written through silence, doubt, breath, and risk, chasing a feeling until it gives us goosebumps.

Music was never meant to be generated.
It is meant to be felt.
