Josaleigh Pollett - bad dreams

Josaleigh Pollet’s “bad dreams” is a hard tune to pin down. The electronic percussive elements sometimes feel as if they are at odds with the rest of the song’s lo-fi, folkish rock narrative. But the more we listen to it, the more we get the feeling that that’s the whole point. And while the subject matter might be inherently dreary, there’s a lot that keeps you coming back for more in this one. The two ongoing lush guitar melodies give the track its needed euphonious depth, but it’s Pollett’s serenading vocals, swirling from left pan to right pan, that ultimately steal the show. We’ll be eagerly awaiting more from this Utah native - with the anticipation of a potential sophomore LP out later this year.
