Luke De-Sciscio - “The Girl With The Thorn In Her Side”

The gorgeous indie folk song, “The Girl With The Thorn In Her Side,” has just been release by UK-based artist Luke De-Sciscio and it will leave you wanting more.

Full of warmth and gentle tones, this single can only be described as a “mood.” The simple, stripped-back atmosphere of the music and performance is one of the things I really adore about this song. De-Sciscio has created something that is incredibly cosy and endearing by concentrating on the tone, the moment, and the performance.

The foundation of the song is incredibly sweet and serene acoustic fingerpicking, which melodically develops soft and warm guitar tones. Higher note flourishes contrast satisfyingly and lend traditional tones to the composition. All of this has made for a really calm and pleasant atmosphere. The track’s lack of additional musical layers demonstrates De-Sciscio‘s amazing ability to produce something truly unique and, thus, earns him a spot on our blog.

The song’s heavy dose of reverb creates a gentle pad as tones fade and blend. The music almost leaves the impression of being played on the edge of a cave. The tones gradually diminish, giving off a mood that is celestial and spiritual. The vocal is gentle in its delivery, but there is a heavy emotional sense to it. The lyrics are storytelling, reflective, and tenderly tinged with feeling, which lends a lovely melancholy vibe to the music.

The song is simply warm and wonderful and will please all fans of stripped-back indie folk. “The Girl With The Thorn In Her Side” is the first single from De-Sciscio‘s new album, Beaufort East.
