Rainy days like this need something soothing. Something to softly pet the sorrowful mind, and whisper into its ears that the rain is only here for shortly, that sunny days are coming.
Sweet Salt, is that kind of band.
An indie rock duo with a smooth female vocal and a simple instrumental section that fills up like orchestral music.
This song below, is titled 5 Minutes Before Breaking Up.
There's nothing too complicated here. No fancy lyrical playing or musical banter going on. But simplicity is what makes Sweet Salt truly shine. Every note, every word hides an emotion, and not a thing about their music is extraneous. It's just enough, to make us feel it.
Before I speak in more ambiguities, here's more music!
Sweet Salt at first can come like one of those any other underground indie bands that are out there. I admit it. This isn't something new. But then again, it's never the originality nor the novelty that gets the job done. It's the delivery. Perhaps it's not intended, and these things usually aren't when they happen right, but Sweet Salt knows how to deliver their tunes, their music, just right.
Often in music, there's that, 'whoa' factor. It can't be explained, and it has barely anything to do with level of training, or the genre of the music. Practice has probably something to do with it, but that's a given. That's why so many bands, so many individuals rise out of the outskirts of mainstream music, the mainstream breeding ground of music. Sweet Salt, I feel like, has that 'whoa' factor.
Are you in need of love songs to soothe your troubled soul? Are you searching for that perfect band to fall in love with music again? Are you simply looking for good music to relax by? Here's where you can start. Enjoy.
