Saint Nick the Lesser – “21 Minutes”

Saint Nick the Lesser’s “21 Minutes” hits with purpose, it’s the final single from a project that’s clearly been through a lot, and it feels like it. This one’s honest, a little raw, and walks that tightrope between world-worn and hopeful without tripping over itself. If you’ve ever had one of those moments where you weren’t sure what was coming next but knew something had to change, you’ll probably get what he’s going for.

The punk and folk punk backbone shows, especially if you’re familiar with names like Frank Turner. There’s a lived-in grit to it, but it’s not wallowing. It feels like someone yelling from the other side of something you might still be stuck in. Whether you’ve been there or not, there’s a meaning behind the message that change is possible, even if it’s just barely.

Keep up with Saint Nick the Lesser online to catch what’s next. More tracks are coming later in 2025, and they’re likely to dig just as deep.
