Sarah Banker has just shared her emotive four song EP Into the Heart. The collection features Sarah’s relaxing and charming vocals over folky pop rhythms. The music is soothing, inspirational and joyous, and it the kind of EP we really need right now.
The first song “FRIENDS” is a declaration of flirtation, fun and connection. The melodies are catchy and the guitar is nostalgic. Then there is “INTO THE HEART”, the title track and standout song on the EP. It begins with shimmery keys and a downtempo electric guitar. Soon groovy bongos and breezy soundscapes add to the allure. The song details living in the moment, not overthinking and being one with your soul and heart. “Our Love” is a sweet tune filled with trumpet, string arrangements and acoustic musical sounds. Layered harmonies entice with every listen. “COCKADOODLEDOO” showcases her warm vocals perfectly with a sun-kissed backdrop and Jazz-infused good time.
Overall “Into the Heart” is a strong debut from this Colorado based artist. The songs capture moments and emotions that the listener hopes will stay with them for a long time.
