Hazey Grace is a solo singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist based in Chicago, Illinois. Their titular track ‘Daydream’ is simple in composition and style, opening with a singular lead acoustic guitar that becomes the sole musical focal point in the song.
Opening with a slow, easing guitar hooks the listener in and gives them a sense of calmness. This is then joined by a booming yet slow drumbeat that both mirrors the slow guitar perfectly but juxtaposes creating a mix of soft and heavier sounds making way for a beautifully confused and atmospheric sound.
Hazey Grace’s vocals steal the show and alongside the hooks and melodies, the performance and lyrics create a strong narrative landscape that oozes with emotion. This is shown in the lyrics “Please don’t go and shake me, I just wanna stay asleep.” The slight pause adds to the emotion, and the overall tempo, acts as a moment of reflection and vulnerability perfectly showcasing the attention to detail put into the track.
Hazey Grace wears his heart on his sleeve, easing and hooking listeners in with a catchy melody, gorgeous vocals and a refreshing sound. Filled with originality and talent ‘Daydream’ is a must-listen for those who are in the woes of heartbreak or for those wanting a relaxing but thoughtful listen.
