“Space & Time” has something bittersweet to offer. In a lighthearted Americana acoustic environment, Sug Daniels calls for the final salvage of a deep connection between two people. Inspired by the artist's personal experience, “Space & Time” consists of complex feelings and emotions. Daniels’s voice is where the stories are. There was so much more in the music and voice itself than what meets the eyes.

Addressing the problems takes more than walking away, but sometimes, what we need might be a time and space to breathe. Letting it go and letting it be, it’s always easy to say than do. “Space & Time” was written from a unique perspective with the charismatic lo-fi sound mixed in its soundscape.  

“They say your body feels the shift first, then your heart, and inevitably your mind. It’s the last resort in trying to salvage any kind of friendship with someone you’ve spent years devoting your life to romantically. Here we address the elephant in the room and decide to give up control in order to save a beautiful connection between two souls. Sometimes, floating above an issue and zooming out allows you to see it more clearly. Someone has to say it,” said Daniels. 

Growing up in the rural town of Smyrna, Delaware, Sug Daniels shared the collective experience of isolation and extreme joy many LGBTQ+ people felt in Southern Baptist-style churches. The artist continued her creative journey vocalizing love and shared experiences inspired by personal and collective stories after coming out.
