Moody and deeply emotive, Colt Sterk’s ‘Mistake’ is Americana through and through with a keen sense for melody and build up. The song has a defined and consistent structure that’s able to move effortlessly from the soft and more subtle beginnings to a more lavish and opulent crescendo that gives it a sense of catharsis and finality. With a fantastic electric solo also coming towards its latter half, you can see that Colt Sterk isn’t just about an acoustic country vibe alone. He’s more than comfortable showcasing a more broader and full blooded body of eclectic rock in his work.
It’s the ideal addition for you to place on any sad playlist of yours, anything that’s just a slight bit moody and rainy. But there’s an underlying sense of understanding and acceptance that makes it a great tune to heal to.
