'Chance Of A Lifetime'

*Wings Of Desire* craft woozy, indie pop jewels.

The duo's debut EP 'End Of An Age' is coming into focus, matching wonderful melodic details to some intricate songwriting elements.

An immersive, atmospheric document, the EP has been trailed by some gorgeous singles, with '00', 'Runnin', and 'Be Here Now' raising the bar with each successive release.

New single 'Chance Of A Lifetime' finds Wings Of Desire locating fresh focus in their work, distilling those ideas down to a fine element.

Bursting out of the traps, it's full of colour and poise, leading to that glistening chorus.

The duo comment...

"'Chance Of A Lifetime' is the lead track from our debut EP. A statement of intent, a snap shot of a world in flux. The EP 'End Of An Age' is an uplifting look at human consciousness at a time when we’re all going through a period of mass-reflection. It embodies that 'sliding doors' feeling that our lives are just a series of predetermined events, and it’s up to us change direction. We are yearning for something deeper, wanting to jump off the conveyor belt of life and prepare ourselves for the uncomfortable truth that we’ve never truly known what it is to live."

"We are not claiming to have the answer, but if we can inspire a conversation or spark the listeners imagination then we are one step closer to the realisation that there is much more to living than we can consider tangible." We're able to share the full video for 'Chance Of A Lifetime', a split screen clip that seems to epitomise both the aesthetic and approach that Wings Of Desire take.
