As Dermot explained, the title “Sonder” means “the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own,” and that is something that has resonated with him for many years.
“I haven’t always been comfortable being the center of attention, and the message behind this new music is that it’s not just about me, but it’s about all of us,” he explained. “I want to share experiences, triumphs, and troubles with my fans so we can hopefully all take comfort in the music together.”
