Jonny Herman is a singer-songwriter and acoustic artist that crafts his sonic aesthetic after the Victorian era. With European elegance and vintage minimalism, his alt folk style is a delightful circle of old classic and contemporary. There’s a very Shakespearean whimsy built into his style. It inspires a sense of drama and indulgence. In his latest single, ‘Oriana’ this mood board manifests so gracefully. The acoustics frolic with the woody beats, building into his baritones a lilting atmosphere.
Across the composition, you’ll find beautiful shifts between the old and the new. A single feature will shine through that pulls in scenes from movies like Pride & Prejudice before switching to a sunny Caribbean island dream frame. Then there’s the French countryside simplicity and also a liberating hippie ethos. The best way to enjoy the song is to swing with the times, the aesthetics, the neo-classicals, the acoustics, the visuals, and everything in between. For as they all come together, they seem to become a quaint film that is full of simple things and beautifully human characters. Listen Now!
