David Gilmour, Romany Gilmour – Between Two Points (RSD 2025)

Released on June 17, 2024, “Between Two Points” is a poignant collaboration between Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour and his daughter, Romany Gilmour. This track serves as the second single from David Gilmour’s fifth solo album, Luck and Strange, which was released on September 6, 2024.

Originally penned by Mark Tranmer and Roger Quigley of the British indie duo The Montgolfier Brothers, the song first appeared on their 1999 debut album, Seventeen Stars. Gilmour's rendition retains the song's ethereal quality while infusing it with a fresh, intimate perspective.

Romany Gilmour takes the lead with a delicate vocal performance and harp accompaniment, bringing a sense of vulnerability and youthful introspection to the track. David Gilmour complements this with his signature guitar work, creating a harmonious blend that underscores the song's themes of emotional complexity and self-worth.

The recording process was notably spontaneous. Romany, amidst academic commitments, recorded her vocals in a single take before catching a train back to university. This impromptu session captured an authenticity that resonated deeply with listeners.

Critics have lauded the track for its emotional depth and the seamless interplay between father and daughter. The accompanying music video, directed by Gavin Elder and filmed in London and Manchester, further accentuates the song's introspective nature.

“Between Two Points” stands as a testament to the Gilmours' musical synergy, offering a heartfelt exploration of connection and introspection that resonates with both longtime fans and new listeners alike.
