Beth Sass teams up with Ira Ingber on evocative and intricate new single, Blue Blind Sky

Setting the tone with an enigmatic guitar melody with light, textured percussion, Beth Sass opens Blue Blind Sky with intrigue and atmospheric vocals as she sings introspectively, “Blue Blind Sky, I find, Blue Blind Sky, unkind, in the middle of offering, I feel your shadow devour, wander over where you shouldn’t be, patron saint of sour…”

The opus expands into a soft rock hybrid energy as Beth Sass takes us on a journey through her mind with evocative prose. The visionary creator who has been writing since the age of 12, cites The Beatles, Laura Nyro, Dusty Springfield, and Leonard Cohen as some of her influences, although there is no doubt that Beth Sass is creating a universe of her own.

We appreciate the poetic depth of Blue Blind Sky and the charisma with which the rising artist from Nashville performs. Speaking on the meaning of the song, Beth confesses, “One day I was exhausted while trying to wrestle an upset friend out of her much skewed perspective. From my songwriter’s perspective, I sensed she was emotionally colour blind at that time… mislabeling foes and mis-assigning motives. It was obvious to me while entirely beyond her awareness.”

The cohesive tapestry of sound that Beth Sass creates with her songs is dynamic and rich, and we are also grateful for the dimensional presence of Ira Ingber on the track as he reinforces the message of the composition with his unmistakeable vocal timbre. The music video for Blue Blind Sky features a hypnotizing performance from the stars as they bring to life the concept of the piece visually.

We learn that just in time to record her new album, also called Blue Blind Sky, Beth was endorsed by Casio Music Gear, promoting Casio Keyboards for performance recording, and education throughout the United States. With reference to the record, Beth tells us, “This new album is a phoenix of magnificent creative teamwork rising out of pandemic-era separation.”

“Since my need to document life and love through songwriting can’t be vanquished by challenging logistics like bicoastal time zones and divergent sleep schedules, technology prevailed, and the artistic process won out. Thank you to songwriter, guitarist, and vocalist Ira Ingber for his compositional and production midwifery”, she continues.

Blue Blind Sky has been added to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we anticipate the upcoming album of the same name, and continue to stream Beth Sass‘s wider discography including Watercolor Lake.
