“Change In The Weather” by Podge Lane is a poignant and introspective ballad that delves into the struggles of overthinking and the search for signs in the world around us. Lane’s warm and emotive vocals are accompanied by a minimalist instrumentation, with a plucked acoustic guitar providing a soothing backdrop to his lyrics. The song explores the theme of seeking solace and finding strength in the midst of difficult times.
It finds its strength through its softness, a certain quietness and calm sensibility that’s able to deliver so much with so less. Podge Lane doesn’t need a massive arrangement or a crashing orchestra to hit you where it impacts the hardest. Just lyrics that pierce through your walls and strumming that piques your emotional intrigue is enough to bring out your best senses.
With influences ranging from John Prine and Kevin Morby to Madison Cunningham and Bright Eyes, Lane’s music is a blend of folk, country and indie-rock, with a touch of Americana. Relatable, honest, and vulnerable, “Change In The Weather” is a highlight track from a folk artist with stories to tell and poignance within.
Podge Lane’s latest is the perfect anthem for the cold winter months, bringing a sense of warmth and contemplation to the listener, encouraging them to find the strength within themselves to overcome their fears. This single is a great addition to Lane’s upcoming sophomore album, ‘Common Country Misconceptions’, which is set for release in March. With his previous album ‘Outer Monologues’ receiving critical acclaim and a successful tour, Lane is a rising artist to watch out for.
