Singer-songwriter and folk artist Ryan Yingst is back with yet another bewildering single, Chaos. This time in collaboration with folk/country band TopHouse, the track is seamlessly tailored with the distinct styles of both artists. With Ryan’s expressive vocals carried by a wealth of violin melodies, ukulele chunks, banjo and guitar acoustics, it reveals shades of highland mystique folk among the country interpretations. The song is reminiscent of the stylistic unity of Ed Sheeran, Hozier, and The Corrs.
The instruments tell just as much a story as the lyrics, if not more. Incredibly expressive and well-defined, the accents and allures of the melodic ensemble invokes an air of nostalgia and simplicity. Using poetry and naturalistic imagery, the artists add yet another layer of folk culture to the track. Velvet tongues of violin are peppered with the golden drizzle of acoustic strings. The passion of the former and the gentleness of the latter absorbed entirely into the vocals as it tells lofty stories about love and heartache. Listen Now!
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
