‘The Eye Begins to See’ is the latest project by Daniel J Townsend. An exquisite and moving song cycle about grief and renewal, Townsend and his band will perform the cycle in full.

The songs were written in the same order they appear on the record. You can hear Townsend journeying from chaos and confusion to acceptance, creativity and connection.

“Back then, I could not have imagined sharing this stuff with anyone,” he says. “Now, I can see how these songs really capture how it feels to navigate grief. It’s deeply personal, but it’s also universal; it’s a path you walk alone, just like everyone.”

The Eye Begins to See will be released on vinyl, CD and online in 2024.
