Indianapolis-based musician Richard Edwards is getting set to release his debut solo album at the end of this month, and ahead of this he's revealed another track from the record.

Lemon Cotton Candy Sunset was written by Edwards in the middle of a whole heap of turmoil. In a short period, his band - Margot and the Nuclear So and So's - split, his marriage fell apart and he contracted C. diff, something which came close to ending his career.

Yet out of this hell, Edwards has crafted a beautiful alt.country record and the latest track to be revealed from it is "Rollin’, Rollin’, Rollin’”.

Although hesitant to call it an anthem due to the turbulent content, the track swells and builds in all the right ways; from sensitive verses where it's just Edwards and a simple backing of guitar bass and drums, to a chorus which is filled with harmonies, organ and a passionately pained vocal that's an outpouring of heartbreak, anger and loss.

As he sings “I don't wanna live in my skin / cut me out / Jesus make me stronger / have a little heart" it doesn't feel like catharsis – more that revisiting this time in his life only brings back feelings he’ll go through again. It’s a beautiful, difficult mess but he's made it out the other side somehow, to create what's set to be an emotional record.

"I wrote this song when I was really, really sick in the gut," says Edwards. "I had come to believe that being sick made me a bad person. I could feel relationships in my life suffering, but it was hard to do much about it when I was suffering to the extent that I was physically. I used to sit in my office and listen to 'Texas Girl at the Funeral of Her Father' over and over at night and feel really hopeless. It was a hard time. But my little daughter kept treating me the same, not looking at me like I was sick, and she got me through it, I s'pose. She wanted to sing on the record and this song felt like the place. She howls all through the bridge. So that's, quite obviously, my favorite part."

"Rollin', Rollin', Rollin'" is taken from Lemon Cotton Candy Sunset (produced by Elliott Smith and Beck cohort Rob Schnapf) out 31 March via Joyful Noise.
