Circling Back on Jaye Bartell

Still playing catch up on last week, and I’d be remiss if I didn’t just throw this Jaye Bartell tune out into the world, as it seems to have mistakenly slipped by the world. This track features on his new effort, In a Time of Trouble, which is being dropped this Friday via Sinderlyn. I love the heavy tones of his voice, particularly the way they dominate my listening in this track. To me, it sounds like a tune that would charm at a sock-hop, even with those little guitar flourishes; I feel as if I’d be best suited to swing around with my love in a patient circle. Like I said, don’t sleep on this track like I did.

Let Jaye Bartell Sweep You Away With This Video

So I shared this track a few weeks back when it was released as a b-side to a single that Jaye Bartell did with Angel Olsen. However, the video for this track is just as nearly as beautiful as the track itself, so I feel compelled to bring it to your attention once more. Bartell’s deep yet clear vocals and slow ballad, set to the gorgeous black and white video begs for your attention. He sings about losing time day after day, and the video provides the perfect visual companion to this perfect folk track. Take a peek below.

Jaye Bartell Shares New Track With Angel Olsen

Jaye Bartell has been crafting poetic tunesfor a while now, spinning new tunes to match the passing of time. 2017 sees him recording new material, including these two tracks you can take a listen to below. While both feature his distinct vocals and elegant songwriting, each has their own strengths. The first song, “Dance With Me,” includes the beautiful addition of vocals from Angel Olsen to harmonize with Bartell’s dulcet tones. It’s a gorgeous track that reminds me a bit of some Silver Jews tunes. If you stick around and spin the second song, “Slow Going,” you’ll be pulled in by the storytelling that Bartell brings to the table. Take a listen and enjoy these beautiful tunes.

Striking Tune from Jaye Bartell

jayeEver stumble across one of those tracks that stuck with you for an eternity, yet you couldn’t quite explain it? This brand new song from Jaye Bartell might be precisely the tune you’ve been looking for. It’s got quite simple lyrical content, merely a recounting of the mundane. But, both the guitar tones working against the heavy voice of Bartell really sank in, getting under my skin like few things do. His latest album, Light Enough, is being released by Sinderlyn on April 29th, so be sure to keep your sights on what could be a really special collection of tracks.
