Honest Songs From Lanterns Of Hope
A series of songs released from the Lanterns of Hope project all have a way of giving insight into the artist's personal life situations and with such a straightforward and honest approach to songwriting, a lot of these songs are easily relatable and understandable as they come through in the form of classic folk and lush singer-songwriter styles that let you pay attention to the vocals as the music takes you for little musical journeys.
Songs like "Sea Song" give off an existential vibe and a very vast tonality that makes you think and feel and this is exactly what we need from music in this genre.
The track features acoustic guitar and vocals but also has layers of ghost notes that float around in the song's ether creating a particular atmosphere that makes you get engulfed in the soundscapes that are delivered.
These songs are like an escape and when you listen to them you forget about your surroundings for a chunk of time which I feel like is a gift in music in general.
Each track tells a story some deeper than others while you get wrapped up in the textures of the guitars.
Other tracks like "There Was This Girl" fall into a more straightforward category and you have less vastness and more one-on-one Style in terms of the sound of it all.
This is something else that really draws you in because you're getting a piece of the artist's personality with each lyric and all of that makes you want more.
These songs are beautifully delivered and all have a certain level of heart to them that showcase this entire project's ability to capture the moment so to speak.
These are wonderful songs that make you feel and make you think and these are factors I absolutely adore because it's what we all look for when we're listening to music in certain states of mind.
Songs that connect with us and that we can relate to.
This is of the highest importance when it comes to people who turn to music for emotional purposes.
A lot of us do that and Lanterns of Hope is one of the best things you can listen to so that you remember we are all human.
