Review: Amanda Anne Platt & The Honeycutters – Pocket Song

Sometimes a slower track comes by and makes you feel wistful for a time that never happened – that’s how this track came to us. Part Joni Mitchell, part Father John Misty and a sprinkling of country with Amanda Anne Platt’s familiar twang, this song is quieter, more acoustic and would be best enjoyed outdoors on a sunny day, surrounded by people you love lying in grass. It’s a dreamy track that benefits from being stripped back, just the gentle drums, stepping bass and acoustic guitar. The sound of steel guitar comes into play and it’s very nearly perfection. As the bridge introduces a tinkling piano, this song is calmness personified, with the correct amount of longing and heartfelt lyricism to make it summer playlist worthy.
