Three acoustic folk songs that remind me why I never want to stop writing about music

Francisco Sola and Genesis Ritchot – “Flower heart”
-Look, I would never approve a song just because it has a great whistle solo, but I’ll tell you what… that can sure persuade me to say yes! This is a wonderful acoustic tune about all the sweet romantic things you might expect from a track called “Flower heart,” but it has a beautiful whistle solo conveniently threaded throughout the song. There’s an assurance and confidence in the lyrics that guarantees the relationship is going to work. It’s a story of devotion delivered with a poetic flourish.

Cole Swensen – “Slipping through my fingers”
-As a father, this song releasing before Father’s Day hits incredibly hard. The lyrical theme is about trying to enjoy every moment you get being with loving your child. You want to capture and bottle those moments, but you simply can’t. Swensen’s characteristic vocal helps give this ABBA cover song have an extra measure of sincerity and conviction. It’s an emotional song for us dads, let me tell you. We’re always grasping and trying to hold on to that love we have for our children. I loved this one.

Dan Pallotta – “Winnebago dreams”
-This is such a bright and colorful song. It’s got a nice little acoustic narrative style. It’s about crossing the country in a Winnebago and meeting lots of different people along the way. There’s a certain nostalgia to the song that’s sure to win over a lot of fans. People who have embraced the RV and trailer life will find a lot to enjoy about the song. It has nostalgia and comic relief in a nice balance, like an old Roger Miller song. Give it a spin if you’re up for a light hearted good time.
