Singer-songwriter Mindy Gledhill from the USA has just released the beautifully melancholic indie rock anthem, “Stained Glass Heart.”
“Stained Glass Heart” is a devastatingly majestic track. It is hard to even believe that at its core is a demo recorded in 2013 for Mindy Gledhill’s album Pocketful of Poetry. Shimmering with a dusty, slow-burning mystique, the intimate anthem feels like a sonic candle lit tour of the corridors of your memory.
Dressing the song are restrained yet rich layers of mellow electric guitar soaked in reverb. Chiming and weaving the sounds thoughtfully caress the warm bass and drum beat that barely rises above a heartbeat. The music is simply a masterclass in emotional warmth and minimalism.
At the heart of the love song is the delicate, magnetic vocal of Mindy Gledhill. The performance is pure magic with each syllable coated in a velvety, breathy quality that is nothing short of spellbinding.
Indescribably beautiful and with a sparsity that allows each note to seep into your bloodstream, “Stained Glass Heart” is just one of those luminous, soul stirring and immersive tracks you will want to play again and again.
