The latest from Australia-based Irish artist Bonniesongs is an interesting mix of sounds. "Strangest Feeling" starts off as a fairly standard modern singer-songwriter track that lands somewhere between folk-pop and rock. The song is sprinkled with these little psychedelic flourishes that give the song an unexpected indie rock base. And then, just as you're lulled into a comfortable space, this eruption starts happening... and then fades out. "Strangest Feeling" ends up being a pretty little song on the surface that borders on twee, but somewhat hides a lot more going on inside of the song. It's so close to being a completely mainstream singer-songwriter track but Bonniesongs keeps the entire thing fully engaging.
Bonnie Stewart (aka Bonniesongs) says of her latest single:
“It’s maybe my only classic love song. It’s about the fear of loss with loving someone but it’s a happy song, celebrating love and connection whilst also highlighting the inevitable future heartache.”
You can listen to "Strangest Feeling" below. Strangest Feeling, the album, is due out July 25. For more on Bonniesongs, check out the artist on Instagram and Facebook.
