After cementing himself as an indie-pop innovator over the last two years, Dayglow returns today with Second Nature, the third track from his forthcoming album People In Motion out October 7 via AWAL. This song follows recent singles Deep End and Then It All Goes Away.
Second Nature is unexpected, sounding like the sonic lovechild of Daft Punk and The 1975, as psychedelic, funky synths lay the groundwork for an ear-wormy hook and undeniable feel-good energy. The 22-year-old Texas based musician continues to deliver cathartic music that resonates with the masses, serving the perfect concoction of indie charm, pop sensibilities, and funky instrumentation that’s guaranteed to get you dancing. In an era of music when most songs take a team of co-writers and producers to create, Dayglow’s music remains uniquely Sloan’s– created solely by him.
“Second Nature is one of the most ambitious songs I’ve made so far. I didn’t think it would be a Dayglow song until the rest of People in Motion started to take shape. I made so many versions of it. I just kept writing more and more melodies and ideas. The logic file ended up being like this 15 minute jam that I eventually condensed to be the near 6 min song it is”. He says of the song.
He adds, “I was really inspired by songs like Lionel Richie’s All Night Long, Michael Jackson’s Wanna Be Starting Somethin, and of course Daft Punk. I just love songs that have repeatable chord progressions that never seem to even reach their potential — they just keep going on and on. Lyrically and musically I wanted to create a song that felt like that. A song that just celebrates itself and the joy of dancing and making music. It doesn’t even feel like Second Nature — it feels completely innate and natural to make music to me. I love it more than anything and it feels like what I was made to do, and Second Nature just grasps that idea and runs with it confidently.”

Earlier this year, Dayglow visited Australia for a victorious performance at this year’s Splendour In The Grass, as well as three sold out headline shows in Sydney and Melbourne.
The 10 tracks that craft People In Motion, conceptualized, written, played, and produced by Struble, are delightfully pure, hyper-melodic manifestations of his desire to steer clear of conflict or drama and offer someone something to love.
But People in Motion isn’t all sunshine and rainbows. There is a depth to Dayglow here, a real sense that Struble has faced obstacles of his own and chosen to stand atop them. “I make music because I love making it,” said Struble. “I just love recording and producing.” That is the inarguable takeaway of People in Motion, a record about finding something you love and singing about it out loud.
Since Dayglow burst onto the scene, Struble has toured the globe, selling out his North American headline tour, a slew of UK/EU dates, and has graced festival stages including Outside Lands, Reading & Leeds, Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, Bonnaroo, and Corona Capital. He has appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, as well as the iconic Austin City Limits on PBS, a highlight for the Austin native. This October he kicks off a massive North American tour, with tickets selling fast.
Fans around the world haven’t just come out for the shows but they’ve listened and streamed and streamed, more than a billion times in fact. His debut single Can I Call You Tonight, from his debut record Fuzzybrain, not only went Platinum, but was also 2020’s biggest independent Alternative Hit. The song hit #2 at both US Alternative and Triple A radio. The official video has become a favorite on YouTube, sparking a wave of fan-made spin offs. Dayglow’s sophomore album Harmony House didn’t disappoint either, with its hard-won and palpable sincerity, it garnered acclaim from Billboard, NPR, Ones to Watch, The Talkhouse, and NME.

Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
