Establishing the mood with sound of a record player and immersive keys with echoing textures, Blair Djuna opens Beautiful with the vulnerable lyrics, “Out of site, out of mind, picture perfect life seems so far, I’m so lost, I’ve never felt so low before…“
The opus expands into a meaningful, contemporary pop soundscape as Blair shares his emotions though a sensitive, reflective and melodic medium, as he touches upon themes of self doubt, turmoil and despair. The rising artist from Australia says that “anyone who has, or wants to be loved will understand” the meaning of Beautiful.
Beautiful is Blair Djuna‘s third solo release, and the rising artist confesses, “I choose to pour my heart and soul into my music, by crafting meaningful songs that will truly touch any audience I have the honour to play for.”
We appreciate the poetic nuance of the opus and the luscious production of the vocals, fused with the enigmatic and atmospheric soundscape. A lyrical highlight is the relatable, “Surrounded by lovers, but still alone, from lovers to strangers they go…”
