Acoustic-led folk that gently merges nature and soul.

 

Gentle lilting lyrics and fragile snowflakes of instrumentation set the scene for Snow, the latest single by acoustic folk artist Fran Minney.

It’s a beautifully tender acoustic-driven track that is as gentle as the snow the title mentions. A cascading guitar melody underpins a winding vocal, with the two coming together to create a surprisingly layered yet minimalistic track. It’s nothing that breaks the mould of folk music, but sticking to tradition isn’t always a bad thing. Particularly when its executed as successfully as here.

A moving blend of nature and human soul make this a refreshing way to wake yourself up in spite of any new year’s hangovers you may be suffering.
