Beth Sass – Blue Blind Sky (2022)
Inspired by artists like Dusty Springfield, Leonard Cohen, the Beatles, Laura Nyro, and her poet mother, singer-songwriter Beth Sass has an intimate and soul-stirring sound. By 8th Grade, Sass was already writing songs and performing as part of a duo that lasted throughout high school. With a growing passion for music, it was only natural that Sass would go on to study composition at Berklee College of Music – the first step to a successful career. As a signed songwriter at Multimedia Music and Maypop Music Group, this songstress was mentored by notable country lyricists, such as Don Pfrimmer, and has now established herself as a poignant pianist and singer. The latest addition to her discography is the single ‘Blue Blind Sky’.
The first release in three years, ‘Blue Blind Sky’ follows her 2019 track ‘Distance’. Similar to ‘Distance’, Sass’s new single has a heart-breaking folk-pop style; however, ‘Blue Blind Sky’ has a heavier quality to the song. I’m not saying the heavier element is part of the melody, although there is a more poignant robustness to the arrangement. No, it is actually part of the poetic lyricism. A deeper, more vulnerable and intimate weight lies on your soul as you listen to the new single.
Beth Sass has a charming, haunting and powerful voice, but in ‘Blue Blind Sky’ she is joined by singer-songwriter Ira Ingber. The interplay of his warm tones and her haunting tones make for a cleverly crafted vocal arrangement. Harmonically blended but also contrasting creating a soft sonic touch but also a vulnerable pushing away. Sincere, sentimental, introspective and thought-provoking, you can become easily lost in Beth Sass’s new single ‘Blue Blind Sky’.
