For South Florida rock veterans Siren, music has always been about storytelling – about translating real life into something listeners can hold onto. With their new single and video, “February Son,” the band reaches one of the most intimate and emotionally powerful moments of their career.
Written by frontman Rob Phillips, “February Son” honors the memory of Reese Puckett, a beloved family member who passed away at just twenty years old as a result of fentanyl. The song was born out of grief, empathy, and a desire to process loss through creativity.
“It’s one of the most difficult songs I’ve ever written,” says Phillips. “My wife’s daughter lost her son, and we went to her home to comfort the family. I wrote this as a way to deal with the pain and senseless loss—a song for his family and friends to remember him by.”
