Rating: Deep and moving. A songwriting stylistically and emotionally committed to forming soft harmonies between the past and the present. A warm voice rests on sweet percussion, violins, and acoustic guitars. An album more acoustic than the previous ones with those fresh folk and blues veins that have always distinguished his way of making music. This new work “The Letting Go” is yet another testament to his skill.
The album opens light and velvety with the beautiful and subdued “Love Comes To Me” where violins and strings create rarefied and vibrant harmonies. “Strange Form Of Life” is a touching folk ballad capable of enchanting even the coldest hearts. In my opinion, it alone is worth the entire album and as you listen to it you become a spectator of a dizzying crescendo, projecting you into a hidden limbo until you slip into the quiet from where it had abducted you. A new surprise to capture us as we were dozing off in the becoming of Autumn.
A relaxing, melancholic, and romantic album at the same time that knows how to bring me peace and serenity, a sort of projection into unknown and untouched places, humid and silent. Another new adventure in stylistic/musical changes exploring new and highly personalized territories. The beauty of his songs lies in what you don’t expect, in those rhythms and clangs, semi-distortions that explode and implode from nothing, as in “The Seeding”, or from ballads that slip into blues like “Cursed Sleep” and “Lay And Love”, in the sublime folk suite “No Bad News”, or again in the alluring and moving (even for the text) “I Called You Back”, a subdued acoustic ballad where only the voice, a gentle drum, and winds make you twist for almost six minutes. … "I heard your voice in everything."
Astonishing.

"His pen and guitar give birth to sincere and intimate compositions, outside of time."
"Let the magic of the fable of the wolf and the nightingale slip into you, of their flight between anguish and love."
