The Journey of Dependent
Overpass describes Dependent as a journey of self-discovery and finding one’s place in the world. Each song dives deep into the complexities of young adulthood, capturing both the highs and lows. The band emphasizes that this second EP represents a significant evolution in their sound, developed through a collaborative production process.
“Recording multiple tracks in a single session allowed us to experiment,” they share. “We’re excited to showcase our growth as a band in 2024.”
