Lee Trent – “The Dashboard Incident”

“The Dashboard Incident” by Lee Trent is an innermost personal song set to a folk-infused melody that characterizes self-discovery and transition. Self-produced by the artist and mixed by Joel Gardella, this single captures the inimitable way this artist combines fervent songwriting with soul-stirring sounds. The song was born from life-altering experiences that Trent himself had gone through, delving into the deep-seated impact brought about by facing one’s darker moments and how those can create an act of redemption by turning their negative vibes into a positive force for change. Inspired by conversations with songwriter Eric Riddle and nights spent noodling on an old friend’s Yamaha acoustic, Trent crafts a narrative that’s both universal and intimate.

I love how this song mixes storytelling with a message of growth and resilience, something that anyone who has faced their past in the hope of a better tomorrow should listen to.
