Alec Andre Shares Dreams of You

While the summer typically evokes sunshine and a bit of a pop bounce, I’m certainly not averse to falling into the depths of seasonal melancholy. That sentiment is precisely how Alec Andre‘s latest ballad swept me away. Andre has a sullen voice, at least in this presentation, though you can hear how he takes those heavy tones and churns them into something that stretches towards promise. I think this is where the song’s sentiment aligns magically, as he sweeps you away with hopes hanging from a solemn vocal; this is another tune that feels like it’s Richard Hawley adjacent, and I’m not mad at it. Look for the Dreams of You EP to hit later this year.
