The live and intimate sound of guitar strings sliding between fingerstyle notes and soft folk rhythms – Drucker whispers poetic sentiments and heartfelt melodies into the ears of strangers, with a song inspired by the largely unquenchable thirst for fame.
Ultimately presented as a love song, the acoustic warmth and embrace of The News showcases a thoughtful singer songwriter, with a fearless realism to his work but also a relevant sense of self-awareness in this metaphorical approach.
The News considers ideas like ‘what I wouldn’t do for you’ – it’s romantic and personal, but essentially reflects upon the overwhelming desire to be recognised and celebrated. It’s a deeply moving portrayal, loaded with mildly mysterious but compelling verse lines, and building up beautifully throughout a consistently acoustic but increasingly dreamy arrangement.
Really well-crafted, original and interesting, naturally calming. I look forward to hearing more.
