Dryadic – Rainbow Family

Dryadic’s latest single, “Rainbow Family” is a stirring testament to the power of chosen families within the LGBTQ+ community. Fronted by the evocative vocals of Zora McDonald, the band masterfully intertwines traditional folk elements with contemporary flair, crafting a melody that is both uplifting and deeply resonant. The song’s rich tapestry of strings and harmonies reflects Dryadic’s signature sound, drawing listeners into a world where authenticity and unity prevail.​

Written during a period of introspection while living on a canal boat in rural Gloucestershire, McDonald’s lyrics capture the essence of longing for connection amidst isolation. The accompanying music video further amplifies this sentiment, featuring cherished members of Zora’s queer community singing along in heartfelt solidarity. This visual love letter to chosen family enhances the track’s themes of love, resilience, and mutual support, making it a powerful testament to the strength of the LGBTQ+ community.​

“Rainbow Family,” Dryadic not only celebrates the bonds that unite us but also invites listeners to find solace and joy in shared experiences. This single stands as a beacon of hope and affirmation, solidifying Dryadic’s place in the contemporary folk scene as purveyors of heartfelt and socially conscious music.
