Dave Curl releases his latest single Empty, a dreamy and atmospheric track shaped by worldly slide-guitar textures, melodic whispered vocals reminiscent of Roger Waters, a Sting-like mood, and a soothing melody that relaxes the listener while carrying a subtle Snowy White vibe. Heartfelt, touching, and rooted in real human experience, the song gently pulls you into its world. Empty is now on our A-List Playlist and will be played daily as a special BALLAD POWERPLAY at 8 PM London UK time for the next month.
Swiss singer-songwriter Dave Curl, born with English-Australian roots, has been crafting thoughtful folk-pop-rock since 2015. His music blends introspective lyrics with authentic melodic storytelling, connecting deeply through honesty and emotion. With more than 2 million streams and over 4,000 playlist features, his songs have reached listeners across the globe. He has played more than 300 shows, from intimate solo sets to dynamic duo performances, and continues to refine his expressive, heartfelt sound with each release.
His debut album Introducing (2021) was followed by the EPs Slave To Instinct and Hold Me Close, and in 2024 he released Lockdown – Seven Nations, a collaborative project uniting rap artists from around the world. Recent singles such as Don’t Talk Anymore, Running Wild, Riders, and Red Flag showcase his evolving sonic identity and emotional depth.
Now comes Empty, a hauntingly beautiful and melancholic acoustic rock song about burnout, disconnection, and the longing to escape. It captures the feeling of running endlessly in life’s rat race, chasing goals, losing touch with yourself, and realizing you’ve drifted far from what truly matters. Built around intimate vocals, raw acoustic guitar, and soft atmospheric layers, Empty unfolds with honesty and vulnerability. It serves both as a personal confession and a mirror for anyone who has ever felt drained by the pressure to keep going when there’s nothing left inside.
For fans of reflective and emotion-driven music—think Ben Howard, Damien Rice, or Kurt Vile—Empty blends melancholy and beauty into a sound that lingers long after the final chord fades. The single is set for release on November 13, 2025.
