Song Review/ Alt Folk : John Kolar’s ‘Skipping Stones’
John Kolar is a singer-songwriter and alt folk artist. He has a feel-good pulse, an effortless buoyancy, and a quirky style. In his latest single, ‘Skipping Stones’, he journeys through the countryside, through mountains to moments of nostalgia, of childlike joy. And throughout the song, he leaves the lyrics ambiguous, perhaps talking about love, friendship, or philosophies of life. Taking us to simpler times, freer emotions, and large moments.
The song is acoustically built, minimalistic but expansive. And his vocals are like a mellow breeze that makes you feel things, takes you places, transports your mind. To just go with it, let that emotion immerse you, the lyrics move you. That’s the best way to listen to this track. Listen Now!
