Half of electronic R&B duo Denitia and Dene, Brian Marc gives us a soulful serenade about the space left when your lover leaves. Discover his new track “Let Your Lover Go” in this post!
“Let Your Lover Go” is the first single off Brian Marc‘s new solo album titled “The Extraordinary Pleasure of Being Someone Else.”

Marc sounds wistful without being vague, gifting the listener with relatability.
