“Addressing the temporal and futile nature of human existence…”

This is the idea that Garland Kelley talks about in his latest single “Mortal”.

Nashiville-based artist, musician and music producer Garlan Kelley always has a message in his works…and this could be what the world needs most out of art, is to have something to add to the world, something positive that entices people to evolve to a higher version of themselves.

Yes, I believe art has a responsibility…and it cannot be clearer than that of the works of Garland Kelley.

“Mortal” takes a 90s slow rock ballad direction to tells us the story, with Garland’s pure voice and the masterfully crafted musical world that he manages to take us into…the whole experience sounds grand, sounds big and filled with memorable vocal melodies that will have all audiences humming it…then singing it in no time.

The main guitar theme is very solid and melodic, supported by the artful bass movement and the slow but steady drum beats and the soaring vocals…everything we just talked about ends up creating an atmosphere of relaxation and enlightenment.

“Mortal” is a highly recommended experience, both sonically and also from a story-telling point of view.

We wish Garland Kelley all the best in the world, we cannot wait to see what he comes up with next with his usual modus operandi of message-driven songs.

Cheers!
