Inspired by the green expanse, freshness and melancholy of Sweden’s rolling landscapes, Swedish singer-songwriter and indie folk artist, Xolydia crafts aching acoustic tapestries. Her soundscapes are scintillatingly detailed with the curving softness and sweetness of her vocals. Add to this philosophical, dreamy, and deep evocative quotients, you can imagine the general aesthetic of this artist. Listeners of Joni Mitchell are especially sure to enjoy the flows of this artist. ‘Summer Waltz’ is her latest release. This single is marked with some of Xoly’s storytelling brilliance. Embedded in an undulating and fluid rhythm, she opens the listener up to a romanticism that is idyllic, romantic, and sad. It’s like reading a Virginia Woolf or Sylvia Plath book.
There’s a definite degree of vintage in the track. The instrumentals are rustic and deep. The vocals have that archaic folk tradition to it, with just a touch of modernity. And when you immerse yourself in the lyricism, your mind is sure to dance, or in this case waltz, with the poetic expression of it. So refined, sophisticated, and classic. It anchors the listener to the romance of the past and the timelessness of love. Listen Now!
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
