… arestrained yet powerful folk track defined by raw, precise vocals and quietly captivating emotion.
The build-up is delicate, and once his vocals come in, you are sure to be stopped in your tracks.

It’s quite a serene song with a restrained feel, never getting too big and never getting out of control. It keeps itself at a delightful pace and has charming moments dotted throughout.
