DriFtin’ a modern-day “Rocket Man”

Sam Louis curates an imaginative, futuristic music bed with sing along harmonies in the new single “Driftin’”. An artist singing about facing life alone, not feeling tethered to anything or anyone, even floating among the stars keeps his listeners connected. Louis possesses an instant rapport with his audience – the kind of pop/electronica voice that could melt any heart. A balladeer with an electronic streak – Louis sounds out of this world in “Driftin’”.

Perhaps “Driftin’” is a modern-day “Rocket Man” and burns just as bright. I don’t think Louis overplays his cards with the space and stars theme. He’s actually quite grounded in his vocals and the levity of the music current is exceptional. It’s modern, with strong beats and small, clandestine bursts. It sounds nocturnal, and intimate.
