Song Review/ Folk : Den Edie’s ‘Oh, Dear Lord!’

Den Edie’s music is not just that. It is a state of mind. An ideology. An act of love and rebellion. The artist’s music is meant to stand against the loveless culture that is going around. It’s an act of humanity. His latest release is ‘Oh Dear Lord’. It has a remarkable spirit to it. Urgent and dynamic in a way that wakes the listener up. Think artists like Patti Smith, Bob Dylan, and the like. He brings that brand of chaos with intention.

In this track, he sets up a country blues with honky tonk in a barrage of atmospheric riffs and punk power. It’s spontaneous, chaotic, and layered. The build is immense. The vocals arc upwards through the soundscape like a prayer. A prayer that wants to be heard. A prayer that is also a lament. It’s such a complex soundscape, with so many personal dimensions, stories, moods, and emotions forged into it. Nothing but love, power, and prayer. Listen Now! 

The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
