On Mercury's latest single Leaving Rome

On Mercury has unveiled a captivating new single titled Leaving Rome, showcasing the artistry of Spence deBry, the mastermind behind the project.

This track stands out thanks to the enchanting fiddle contributions from his talented neighbor, Kim Dubois, which inspired Spence to rework the song and explore new sonic dimensions.

The creation of Leaving Rome began with a mesmerizing guitar riff centered around an augmented D chord, leading Spence to pen lyrics that reflect the bittersweet nature of parting from something cherished. Drawing inspiration from a memorable camping trip with his wife in Utah, the song encapsulates universal feelings of loss and nostalgia.

Recorded in his cozy Spare Bedroom Studios, On Mercury's meticulous layering of various guitar tones and innovative panning techniques enrich the sound, ultimately creating a heartfelt piece that resonates deeply with listeners. Check out Leaving Rome below.
