Leopold Nunan’s latest single, “5 Meters”, is a triumphant rock anthem that seamlessly blends emotional storytelling with electrifying musicality. As the fourth track from his debut album, Leo From Rio, this song shifts into English, amplifying its accessibility and impact. Nunan draws from his immigrant experience, crafting a heartfelt narrative of struggle, hope, and perseverance. His bold, emotive vocals reminiscent of rock legends like David Coverdale breathe life into lyrics that echo the trials of pursuing dreams in a foreign land.
The production by Alberto Menezes is a masterclass in balancing raw intensity with refined musicality. Libra’s gripping guitar solos weave through the track, adding depth to its themes of departure and determination. Meanwhile, the haunting backing vocals by Anne Montone elevate the song’s emotional resonance.
Accompanied by a visually striking music video shot in Seattle’s rainy streets, Nunan channels the mystique of Film Noir, donning vintage Hollywood-inspired attire. This powerful package of sound and imagery firmly establishes Nunan as a rising force in independent music. “5 Meters” isn’t just a song it’s a resonant anthem for dreamers everywhere.
