It’s Not Over is Ascendant’s first single from the 3rd chapter of our 4 part album, Illuminate: YELLOW. This time, Ascendant teams up with Angela Johnson, the gifted soul songstress, on a truly infectious groove that really lifts your spirits. After the year we’ve all had, we need this song’s energy.

The arrival of the new single means Illuminate: YELLOW can’t be far behind!

ILLUMINATE: to enlighten, as with knowledge; to brighten with light; to make clearer

Illuminate is a concept album (e.g. Songs In the Key of Life by Stevie Wonder, Sign of the Times by Prince) done in 4 parts, spanning the band’s lives, loves, and hopes. It’s about false starts, comebacks and 2nd chances. It’s about perseverance — having the strength to endure. “The band went through changes while we were working on the album. We started with one set of members. That original set broke up and we began another one — but then that set broke up, and we picked up another set. Life imitates art (and art) imitates life. We began to live what we were writing, and in the process of living it, that shaped what we were writing again.”

26 songs, 4 parts

Illuminate:
• BLUE: Wisdom
• GREEN: Rebirth
