Our Take
Our Take
Ah, Sweet Gum Tree's latest offering, Silvatica, is a whimsical journey through the mystical forests of indie folk. This album is like stumbling upon a hidden clearing filled with wildflowers and gnomes serenading you with acoustic guitars.
Lead singer Arno Sojo's vocals are as smooth as a freshly brewed cup of English Breakfast tea, soothing and inviting. His poetic lyrics paint vivid images of nature and love, transporting you to a place where time stands still and worries melt away.
The instrumentation on Silvatica is a tapestry of sound, with delicate fingerpicking, lush string arrangements, and the occasional whimsical glockenspiel twinkling in the background. Each song is a carefully crafted masterpiece, with layers upon layers of sonic detail to discover upon each listen.
Standout tracks include the dreamy "Falling" with its hypnotic melody and the ethereal "Forest City" that feels like a stroll through a moonlit woodland. Each song flows seamlessly into the next, creating a cohesive listening experience that is both peaceful and exhilarating.
Sweet Gum Tree has truly outdone themselves with Silvatica, creating an album that is both enchanting and captivating. So grab your favourite pair of headphones, close your eyes, and let the magic of Sweet Gum Tree’s music transport you to a world where the only thing that matters is the beauty of the music. Cheers to that, old chap!

About the artist
Sweet Gum Tree
Sweet Gum Tree is the musical project of French singer-songwriter Arno Sojo, a man who can make melancholy sound downright uplifting. His music is a blend of indie folk, alt-country, and dream pop, resulting in a hypnotic sound that is equal parts haunting and beautiful. Arno’s lyrics are deeply introspective, touching on themes of love, loss, and the human experience. His voice has a hushed quality to it, almost like he’s whispering his innermost thoughts directly into your ear. It’s the kind of music that makes you want to curl up under a blanket with a cup of tea and just let yourself drift away. But don’t let the mellow vibes fool you - there’s a mischievous streak running through Arno’s music that keeps things interesting. His songs are full of unexpected twists and turns, like a musical rollercoaster that you can’t help but want to ride again and again. With three critically acclaimed albums under his belt, Sweet Gum Tree has firmly established himself as a force to be reckoned with in the indie music scene. His latest release, “Sustain the Illusion,” is a masterclass in musical storytelling, weaving together lush instrumentation and evocative lyrics to create a truly immersive listening experience. So if you’re in the mood for some introspective indie folk with a twist, look no further than Sweet Gum Tree. Just be prepared to get lost in his mesmerizing soundscapes - because once you start listening, you won’t want to stop.
