Barista is out with a sizeable new project titled "Open Sesame" - an ambitious collection of songs spanning several umbrella titles such as "Her Dress," "Press Rewind," and "As Is" (all complete with very engaging and eye-catching artwork). One of the standout tracks from the "Press Rewind (Volume 2)" lineup is the track "Sweet," a medium tempo ballad-esque romp through rock and acoustic guitars.
It's a familiar lamentations song that harkens backs to some of Sting's middle period mixed with a little bit of John Mellencamp. Perhaps what's most satisfying about "Sweet" is the timbre of Barista's voice is gruff in a way not too macho, but still retaining some of that gypsy sound that seems to follow him through much of his music. The instrumentation is also a real treat as it sounds like top-notch musicians are featured throughout his project.
