Single Review/ Singer-Songwriter : Larry Karpenko’s ‘The River’
Larry Karpenko’s songwriting is a wondrous place to be. His compositions have a way of forging perspective that feels fresh. His latest release is ‘The River’, a track that explores the artist’s faith and how the free flow of it all elevates his life. And in the process of creating this track, the artist showcases the inner landscapes and workings of himself. So beautifully autobiographical and yet so universal.
Listening to it feels like you’re gazing upon a range of mountains from a great altitude. That feeling of being on top of the world, that simple clarity, and the wholesomeness of it all is so heartwarming. The sense of space, openness, and heavenliness that he creates with this song is an important part of showcasing the theme. And the metaphor, the river, is used as the root of all his life. Each time he comes back to it, to his faith, he is reminded of all that he is, and why it all is. So soothing, comforting, and grand. Listen Now!
