We are spoiled nowadays with every genre, every niche and crossover at our fingertips. Sometimes we crave the pure. Stephen Combs‘ “Follow Me” is as pure as it gets.
Raleigh, North Carolina based Comb‘s sets country guitars and a beautiful set of piano melodies below his thoughtful and sensitive words on bettering oneself through the pain of change.
“If you want to thrive you have to leave it all behind” Combs hums in this poetically true ballad. Combs comes across as thoughtful and sensitive songwriter who doesn’t clutter an arrangement but knows exactly where the emotional thread lies, as if the music is essentially following his prose. This is a country ballad at it’s purest worthy of the depth and breadth of Willie Nelson‘s ‘You Were Always on My Mind‘ and Roy Orbison‘s ‘Crying‘ and just as timeless.
Stephen Combs‘ EP “Follow Me” is out now.
