We're not gonna lie to each other, since we got this song, we play it on repeat. And it would seem that one Ben can hide another. In a decidedly indie-folk universe, close to that of Ben Greenberg (already well known at IMC and that you will find again next week), Ben Brandt kinda cast a spell on us. With a simple but very bewitching melody, and which stays in mind, the artist reveals his incredible vocal identity, like a signature. And above all, we appreciate all the emotional potential of this song, by its crescendo structure. The power rises throughout the track, until a breathtaking final part. Incredibly talented, Ben Brandt is very inspired by nature, and it can be heard in his music. A breath of fresh air in this troubled world. Included in our "Indie Folk" playlist, and of course, you will now hear this amazing track on the Indie Music Radio.
Sunlight, moonlight, I’m here for you
Summer, winter, surely we’ll come through
Me and you
Our life, our strife - Jesus, carry
What love, till death, making a way through
For me and you
My love, you are all I see
My love, you are mystery
My love, in a sea of others
May I always, only be true
To me and you
My love, you are all I see
My love, you are mystery
Someday you’ll be right there for me
Watching, waiting, knowing He’ll come through
For me and you
Hushed energy with dramatic build. This song traces through typical wedding vows in in loose story form, following a couple from their first declarations of undying love, to their last moments together. I wrote this song for my wife.
Growing up on Minnesota’s North Shore gave indie folk singer-songwriter, Ben Brandt a love of nature that makes its way into his music – from acoustic-led soundscapes to expansive imagery. Now in Minneapolis, Brandt’s intricate finger picking, smooth vocals, and searching lyrics seek to intrigue and inspire.
