Our Take

In the whimsical world of folk music, Joel Rafael is a name that shines like a supernova on a dark night sky. His latest album, "Rose Avenue," is a sonic journey through love, loss, and everything in between.

From the moment the first track kicks in, you can't help but be drawn into Rafael's world of dreamy vocals and heartfelt lyrics. It's like taking a stroll down a quaint street lined with rose bushes, each song an intricate petal in a blooming bouquet of emotions.

The instrumentation on "Rose Avenue" is a perfect blend of Americana and indie folk, with swirling melodies that wrap around you like a warm embrace. Rafael's voice is the cherry on top, soothing yet powerful, like a gentle breeze on a sun-drenched day.

Standout tracks like "Old Paint," with its haunting harmonica and melancholic lyrics, showcase Rafael's storytelling prowess and musical talent. It's like being transported to a dusty old saloon in the Wild West, sipping on whisky and pondering life's mysteries.

Overall, "Rose Avenue" is a mesmerising masterpiece that will linger in your ears long after the last note fades away. Rafael proves once again why he's a force to be reckoned with in the folk music scene, delivering an album that is both nostalgic and refreshing. Take a walk down "Rose Avenue" and immerse yourself in its beauty. Trust us, you won't regret it.
