Lucia – Visions (2021)
With the reflective tones of ‘Visions’, Lucia has listeners thinking about life and getting ready for a new adventure. As the lyrics consider how visions and plans for the future fall away as we get older, Lucia fills you with a new strength to remember these plans and embrace them. If you are looking for an escape from your daily routine and some strength to depart on an adventure, this is the single for you.
The first of two acoustic singles, Lucia works with producer Arnar Guðjónsson to find the right sound. Drawing on her experience as part of several bands, her solo music focuses on personal growth and the impact society has on us. While getting you ready for an adventure, this single draws on her new focus and touches on how societal structures hamper our personal development.
‘Visions’ opens with a dual guitar line that fills your senses with a misty vibe. The strummed acoustic guitar has a light feeling that wisps around your ankles while the second guitar line calls from the background. The melody creates an intimate space that encourages you to sink into a reflective mood. As the drum makes itself known, it will get your foot tapping to it before the deeper guitar line from the opening comes back. There is a wonderful layering to the music that bursts with gentle lights while wrapping around you like a blanket. The rather soothing flow of the melody makes it easy to give in to the lyrics and vocals.
Lucia’s voice is gentle as it beckons you further into the track. There is a wonderful folk feeling to the track that really shines through her vocals. Her voice captures the beauty of light dappling the woods or the majesty of the ocean. She fills your soul with the emotions of the track with effortless ease. As you ride the emotions of her performance, the lyrics dive into visions of the future and embracing them against what your daily routine has to say.
The wonderfully folky tones of ‘Visions’ by Lucia fills you with the urge to embrace the dreams of the future that fall away as we get older. There is a misty feeling to the melody that puts you in the reflective state of mind you need to fully embrace the lyrics. Lucia’s voice is gentle and effortlessly fills you with the emotions of the single.
