David Gilmour releases "Faces Of Stone"

Faces of Stone is the third track from David Gilmour’s new No. 1 album, ‘Rattle That Lock’, and is now available for downloading and streaming. The album was released on 18 September by Sony Music and hit the No 1 spot in 11 countries, as well as charting top 5 in 12 others including in the US. Rattle That Lock, the title track from the album, and Today have both been released to radio.

Faces of Stone is written by David Gilmour, and is a personal song about the end of a life and a beginning of another. David Gilmour said: “Towards the end of my mother’s life, when she was suffering from dementia, there was a brief crossover period of about 9 months, when she was alive and my daughter was newly born: this song is a musing on that time. Specifically it refers to a walk in the park where my mother was ‘seeing’ pictures, or ‘faces of stone’, hanging in the trees.”

Faces of Stone is co-produced by David Gilmour and Phil Manzanera. Watch & Share: smarturl.it/FacesOfStoneVideo
