Stian, originally from Norway, moved to Cardiff, UK to pursue his Masters in music production. He started Firewoodisland as a one-man project. The name of the band is a direct English translation of Stian’s surname ‘Vedøy’. Soon after starting the group, Stian would go on to meet Abi who would join the band. They would go on to participate in Norway’s Bandwagon Battle of the Bands as finalists, soon after the competition they released their debut EP ILD in 2014. The duo would go on to release EP Dome(2016), as well as their debut album Chaos Is The State Of The Heart in 2018.
‘Ataraxic’ is a gentle and meditative rendition on the delicate subject matter of mental health. The duo elaborate on the song meaning, “‘Ataraxic’ is a vulnerable ode to a friend who suffers with PTSD,” says Stian and Abi, “It is meant to encourage and inspire them to keep fighting and pushing forward, and remind them that people are around them who love them and will hold them up when they are struggling to stand. Life is worth fighting for.
