Tumbling into the Dawn
# Tumbling into the Dawn

Tumbling into the Dawn is the third studio album by Australian independent singer-songwriter, Lior. The album was released in October 2010 and peaked at number 26 on the ARIA Charts.

"I Thought I Could Sing On My Own" was released in July 2010 as the album's lead single

Lior told Beat Magazine that unlike previous albums, where he wrote the song with a guitar, he wrote these songs on a piano which allowed him them to have "stronger melodies". "A lot of my songs are about everyday struggle, but I think this album is more direct and less about mood. I wanted to make the songs jump out and speak for themselves rather than hide their emotions."

## Reception

Michael Awosoga-Samuel from Readings said "The latest release starts with a chirpy 1970s Wings-sounding track called 'Shadow Man' and I thought I could sing on my own. The record is split into two parts – a rockier first half and a more introspective second. This arrangement works well, allowing you to settle into the rhythm of the piece. Again, Lior has not disappointed, and his many fans will approve."
