People Are Saying That This Is A Zach Bryan Song Released Under An Alias And It Is AWESOME
So someone DM'd me this song on spotify. I am an apple music person so I couldn't listen and had to do some searching. On spotify and elsewhere it is under an artist named "Sami". Other videos on youtube will say it's Zach Bryan. Maybe it is just a completely open secret that he puts out music under this alias, but it was news to me and my general rule of thumb is that if I don't know something about a subject that I generally care about then there are probably many people like me. I hadn't heard this song before, but it struck an f-sharp chord right down to my bones.
This guy wakes up and writes poetry more easily than most people write texts. Songs flow out of him. It'll never cease to impress me that in 2022 this man released a 34 song album that was one of my all-time favorites and then released a 9 song EP like a month later. 43 songs in a year. By historical standards that would be 4 albums and a lifetime of work for a musician. Feels like he almost does this on instinct. Makes something that is impossible for 99.999% of the population look easy. Can't wait to see him at the Windy City Smokeout this summer.
PS: He also released this song with Maggie Rogers in January
