 Cry On
The Wind features a rich and harmonic 12-string guitar layered with
thick harmony vocals ala CSNY.
I am a sucker for the sound of fingers
on a 12 string and this one has a nice voice indeed. The lyrical
message of this song is clear yet more subtle then much of the
Contemporary Christian music.
The melody has a familiar ring to it
and the vocals are clear, well intonated and crisply enunciated. Though
perhaps mixed a bit heavy which is actually a pretty common thing in
singer songwriter productions.
This is a simple song with a simple
message. It is very nicely performed and Loren's voice really is quite
strong. His sustain is exceptional with little degradation of pitch
even after holding a note for nearly 8 seconds. Many of the young
aspiring artists out there should take notice of this vocal performance
as it is a solid representation of proper breath control in action,
which is often times something that is severely missed by today's Indie
vocalists.
