Coming out of the scene in Rotterdam, Netherlands, is singer-songwriter Tom Hartman. His beautiful new song opens up with a tremendously stunning guitar piece that sounds like one of those finger-picking tones that the likes of Ben Howard is famous for.
... a breathtaking folk gem filled with delicate guitar, warm harmonica and timeless Americana charm.
It's an incredibly rich track that is very much folk-leaning and is the kind of offering that is sure to capture your ears within the first minute. The track is built around the acoustic guitar and Tom's stunning vocals, with an atmospheric sound featuring harmonica and some simple keyboard sounds added for extra depth.
It's a very peaceful track that has lots of Americana and folk influences and is a shimmering example of how Tom Hartman is thriving in his scene. I personally loved the harmonica solo after the halfway point, almost confirming the fact that his talent is incredible and belongs on the biggest of stages.
It's immersive, stunning and unapologetically gorgeous. Be sure to listen to "High Tree Climb" as soon as you're finished here.
