bardz – “Hold me close”

I’m truly amazed by “hold me close”, bardz’s latest single. Coming back to his roots, this acoustic track maintains the atmospheric essence bardz is famous for, but also emphasizes his true unique sound. For those who want raw and authentic storytelling, they will find it in spades in bardz’s raw vulnerability and heartfelt vocal performance.
With this song, bardz speaks to his father, exploring feelings like grief, forgiveness, and the journey to clarity after trials. Each note is weighted with emotion, bardz’s mountain images painting a picture of his maturing respect and gratitude.
The track really shines because the drums are rising along with bardz’s unique custom guitar setting, which provides a vast and intimate atmosphere, reflecting the complex emotions bardz explores.
I can’t stop playing this gorgeous track on repeat and strongly believe it showcases bardz at his most genuine and artistically compelling, so do yourself a favor by following him on Instagram and all streaming platforms, adding “hold me close” to your emotional indie playlists, and catching him live as he supports DLG. on tour throughout May in LA, San Francisco, Austin, and Denver.
