Owen Youngโs EP โOn a Day Like Thatโ offers listeners a collection of heartfelt folk songs that capture the essence of lifeโs moments, relationships, and introspection.
The EP opens with the title track, โOn a Day Like That,โ which delves into the details and then sprawls into the big picture with vivid imagery inscribed in the lyrics. Youngโs warm vocals and acoustic guitar create a comforting atmosphere, inviting listeners to reflect on the simple joys of life.
While the first track focuses on contentment, the second track, โWill You Be The One,โ shows us the joy of having found our one true love as well. The harmonies provided by Tia McGraff and Tommy Parham add depth and warmth to the track, enhancing its emotional impact.
In โMaybe It Was A Saturday, โYoung shows us the passionate beauty, young love is with the anecdote of the day he fell in love with his lover.
โHiding It All Awayโ has the most intriguing storytelling tone, with its scope exploring the different lives of people whose dreams have been exchanged for a run-of-the-mill life. The lyrics delve into the struggles and desires for a fresh start while being tied down to our responsibilities.
Tia McGraffโs magnificent vocal prowess can truly be felt on the EPโs showstopper, โA True Friend In You.โ What is meant to be a touching tribute to the power of friendship and faith makes us nod to a vermillion-skied country siesta to the classic unadulterated thick and sonorous vocals. It sets the EP to a glorious sunset.
โOn a Day like Thatโ by Own Young is the EP you should start any and every day with, regardless of your tastes, to really feel the contentment within you.
