Christine Tarquinio Returns With A New Single
Christine Tarquinio returns with a new single that certainly dishes out a small piece of herself as she delivers a unique brand of honesty that comes through those not only relatable but likely cathartic for Christine herself to write and release.
"New Year's Day" is a song that most of us can really understand because where she's coming from is a place we've all thought about as New Year's Day actually approaches and some of us look at it as making different kinds of changes in our lives but others look at it as a clean slate.
Throughout the song you get glimpses of some of her inner thoughts and curiosities and the more you listen the more relatable they actually are.
This is something that lets the song come through as incredibly connective because it gives her this honest and genuine character and I think that's just how she writes her music.
Christine releases songs that usually do give pieces of herself and breed that wonderful honesty along with pretty descriptive lyrics that paint pictures and give you insight into her thought process.
This track has a sort of acoustic pop undertone to it and the way that she layers her vocals is what makes the song feel so full-bodied and at times even so personal.
The track grows as you listen to it and added percussion and keys start coming into the mix giving it a more immense and sort of intense, and by the end of the track it feels almost like a cinematic piece of work where a lot of it ends up being orchestrated but throughout it all it never loses the character that it starts off with.
It always holds on to that important piece of realness and authenticity that makes the song so impactful in the first place.
This is a track that has a way of sticking with you for a very long time and I love the almost welcoming openness that she portrays throughout it because I don't think we get enough of that these days especially in the world of pop in general.
Now, this is more a contemporary pop sort of track but it is pop all the same and it also takes certain elements of classic pop undertones and brings them into the mix as well so it's a great mix of sort of vintage and new school but it's really that personality and that honesty that pulls you right in from the start of the song.
We're no strangers to Christine's music and I can tell you right now that this is even more than what I expected from her because she usually does again, have that honesty but she's also evolved a little bit in her musicianship and songwriting styles and so this track gives more of a well-rounded and lush soundscape which works wonders for the song itself and it lets her do those vocal tracks and layer them so that the song does have that thickness.
This is for people who like music that lets them think, which I think we again, just need more of in the world of pop today.
Take a good listen to this song and see how it affects you.
