When Dreams End by Chris St. John: Album Review

When Dreams End is Chris St. Johnโs latest release, penned with the hopes of winning peopleโs hearts. I mean the songwriter, guitarist, and vocalist certainly tugged at my heartstrings which is why Iโm here to share my thoughts on it with you guys today.
What started out as a single, became an EP and then finally an 8-song fully released LP, recorded in Nashville. Another Latin America-inspired song โHer Name was Lilyโ also made it into this collection. He is also very diverse, as I could hear the definite country in โThese Curvesโ. It also highlights Chrisโs buttery voice. Itโs hard to cherry-pick one aspect from each song because the artist is so multi-faceted and his songs are dripping with emotion! Like โBitter Tearsโ, as the title expresses, is drenched in the pain of missing a loved one, and Chris does a fantastic job of adding a bleak and haunting tune to the guitar solo part.ย โOh Papaโ also captures the loss of a father in oneโs childhood, and the effects of it carried through. The Spanish-featured song โLost Without Youโ penned at the last minute, and performed over his baritone guitar is what made the album complete. Iโm a sap for love songs, so I can see why Chris had to include it in his discography!
I had to end this one on a positive note, but you guys should go and check out this LP right now or you would truly miss the dancing emotions all across the canvas that St. John lays out for us.
