Review: Connor Daly – Colors Fade

This was an unexpected album. Daly absolutely shines on this record, the lyricism and high-tension delivery of the opener ‘Ain’t Got A Cape’ is the perfect sad country track. Clearly taking some inspiration from his Americana peers, Daly rests on his talent, it creates space between his vocal line and acoustic guitar throughout the album. His tone is truly remarkable, soft but clear. There is also the exact right amount of both instrumentation and production on this record, Daly has a beautiful voice and it’s right that it gets the spotlight it does. Tracks like ‘Roots’ and ‘One Fake Tear’ highlight just how good a songwriter Daly is too. Much more on the acoustic and Americana side than a country album, for us, this is exquisite.
