S. Carey has released ‘Paralyzed (At Home Version)’, a moving, stripped-back arrangement of ‘Paralyzed’, a track from his 2022 album Break Me Open (Carey’s fourth solo album lends itself perfectly to confined intimacy - NPR).

The track was previously exclusively available via Bandcamp, as part of their Earth Day release with EarthPercent - a charity providing a simple way for artists and the music industry to support those at the forefront of climate justice - and is now widely available for the first time.

On ‘Paralyzed (At Home Version)’, S. Carey said:
"In this version of 'Paralyzed,' I wanted to bring you into my home, just me and a piano. The song reflects on that sinking feeling you get as a parent watching your children grow up way too fast right before your eyes."

S. Carey’s chosen musical expression is a hugely beatific, restorative panorama of beauty - perfect given how landscape and the wonder of nature inspire much of Carey’s imagery. Like a weathered mountain range changing shadow form and color, or the ebb and flow of a river’s current, his music is simultaneously restful and rhythmic, complex and simple, and always evolving.
