Cecilia and the Satellite
February 26, 2015 -- The life of a touring artist can be grueling. That could become even more grueling when
toting around a newborn. However, for Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness, life away from home proves blissful
precisely because of that child. The namesake of his band’s single “Cecilia and the Satellite,” the daughter of
Southern California-based artist Andrew McMahon proves as inspiring at home as on a tour bus on the opposite
coast. Written just weeks prior to her birth, McMahon wanted to create a song that introduced who he was and
the stories he lived prior to Cecilia’s entry to the world. The result ultimately became the powerful first single
from his newest band incarnation’s self-titled album Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness (Vanguard). McMahon
was the frontman of previous bands Something Corporate and Jack’s Mannequin. The new “Day in the Life” cut
from the “Cecilia and the Satellite” video, filmed over the course of a day while on tour in Philadelphia,
showcases how an otherwise ordinary day is brightened because of the presence of Cecilia, Andrew’s wife Kelly,
and even their dog Doris.
