On their new single, "The Seeds," Drift City presents a track that seems to be simultaneously of its time and from another era in today's indie-pop landscape. They pair this with touches reminiscent of vintage soul and alternative rock. The result is a rich, emotive piece of music that grows richer and more emotive with each subsequent listen.
The song evokes a sense of warmth that feels both old and new at once. The songs are thoughtfully arranged, with smooth instrumentals that blend delicate grit, and "The Seeds" have an enduring quality all their own. The storytelling is organic, drawing you in to a shared experience rather than keeping you at arm's length.
"The Seeds" is the sort of song you can listen to on a solo, silent night and feel comforted, but also the type that rings out powerfully across a live stage. Drift City demonstrates its talent for blending genres with ease, and by extension, an outpost where indie integrity meets soulful connection. "The Seeds" is an aural and emotional odyssey, a testament to the way music can take root in your soul.
