It has been ages since we last presented you with a true indie-folk jewel, magnificent and authentic.
The intro and the first verse of "Nothing" are calm. Just a guitar, and a voice. But when the chorus arrives, we discover a voice that we did not expect. Very comfortable, even in the highest tones, DREUW offers us an incredible vocal performance.
Andrew is from Leeds, UK, and already has other indie-folk jewelry to his credit. I beg you, please listen to his other songs on his Spotify, you will be hallucinating. I have rarely seen such a level of quality. And above all: share his Spotify profile, you could do your friends a favor.
DREUW has succeeded in creating a musical universe of his own. It's pretty hard to tell you who he looks like. And I don't like it. I don't like putting labels on people. I just think that DREUW has a really unique style, and most importantly, a mind-blowing vocal organ. His writing talent is also undeniable, he is a genius of words.
Alternating power and softness, he can sing everything. I have already played his songs on repeat on Spotify, and I think "Nothing" will join them, now that the track is available everywhere.
"Nothing" is like an introspective journey, to find yourself, when a relationship fails.
As the artist confides, "'Nothing' signifies a fresh start; it is both a recognition and rejection of how we allow broken relationships to define our self-worth and let our identities slip away. Rather than accepting the cliche of needing another half, this is a narrative of how, in reconnecting with ourselves, we realize that we are already whole. "
In this world where we are all looking for our place, at the moment, given the rather delicate context we are going through, refocusing on yourself is essential. And trust us, this song will help you to do that.
Worth knowing that the music video will be released next Friday. Make sure to follow DREUW on social media (via the links below) to not miss it.
