“Once There Was No Sun,” Blount said in a statement, “is an invitation to reflect on the impermanence, fragility and beauty of a world we too often take for granted.”inspired her recording of the song, Blount seized on the message of an impermanent world in the song’s video, which was filmed off the coast of Maine and features the South Sudanese dancer and choreographer Veeva Banga.Faith, which features contributions from artists like Rissi Palmer, Lizzie No, and Kaia Kater.
