Tess Posner’s latest single, “Black Cloud,” is a mesmerizing and introspective journey through the depths of emotion and the triumph of overcoming darkness. With its alternative pop sound rising to heavenly heights, the song captivates listeners from the first note.
“Black Cloud” reminds us that after every storm come brighter days, with Posner’s huge range of vocals rising from tender lows to ethereal highs. Posner’s poignant lyrics and emotive delivery allow listeners to connect with the raw emotions she portrays.

Her vocal range and control remind me of artists like Aurora and Florence and the Machine, further elevating the song’s emotional impact. The dynamic shifts in the instrumentation and vocals mirror the journey from darkness to light, drawing the listener deeper into the narrative.
