This Week’s ‘Spring Folklore’ List Gives Us Expansive Color

By

Mark Anthony Bartolo – Shooting Stars 

Mark Anthony Bartolo has a voice like a dream. Which fits right into his latest release, ‘Shooting Stars’, especially in bringing the theme alive. Stretching out like an expansive night sky, the lyrical delivery dots the canvas like a star. The tone is reflective and reminiscing as he thinks about the people that he’s met and the experiences that he’s had. The scenes that he’s laid eyes on. A dream girl, a good friend, a long lost friend, a precious baby, a deep brotherhood, etc. Juxtaposing these feelings and people with fantastical nature frames, the artist brings attention to the things that truly matter. Posing them as miracles, blessings, or wishes, the song is a celebration of that humanness. 

Kramies – That’s a Midwest Christmas 

‘That’s a Midwest Christmas’ is Kramies holiday single. Weaved with deep guitar acoustics and warm baritones, the song feels like a comforting fireplace, like a cozy home all done up for the season. Which is exactly what you want in a Midwest Christmas. That sense of warmth, especially emotional as family and friends fly in to celebrate together. The song doesn’t flow but paints a picture. The artist sets up the composition like a family portrait with memories of all his Christmas past. Each vocal line adds a new dimension, a fresh detail, and a heartfelt touch. It’s nostalgic, poetic, and captivatingly melancholic. 

Rachael Sage – Live it Up 

Rachael Sage’s colorful folk pop concludes this week’s list. We have ‘Live it Up’, a fanfare, a soft anthem that stimulates the need to open up and live it up. To grab the colors of the world, take in its beauty and live a big wholesome life. It’s such a happy song. With so much energy and passion for life. Rachael’s vocals are light, effortless and fun as they flow through the instrumental variety. Catchy rhythms, fun hooks, uplifting melodies and a groovy tempo. These are the core themes of the song. So if you’re looking for a song that can infuse hope, positivity, belief and a sense of infinity, then this is the song for you. Such a great way to start the morning. Listen Now!
