Chris Bloom releases new single “Frames”

R&B pop artist Chris Bloom has returned with his latest release, bringing us his brand new single “Frames,” an introspective and empowering track that encourages listeners to believe in themselves. Bloom’s reflective lyricism reveals his personal regret for doubting himself in the past but also offers hope that it’s never too late to cultivate self-assurance and confidence.

Bloom’s journey from his first two singles, “Learning Curve” and “Petals,” to his 2020 EP, CAFÉ, is one of fluidity in genres and production. As a self-taught singer, musician, and producer who grew up in a household where all types of music were celebrated, his sound ranges from R&B and hip hop to pop and acoustic influences. Having moved to LA in 2015, he’s since performed on two North American tours and one Australian tour with Scotty Sire and Sonreal.

“Frames” is an alluring and immersive track that sets itself apart from other comparable R&B and alternative pop songs. Bloom’s soulful vocals blend seamlessly with the song’s spacious reverb-drenched guitar tones.

The impassioned delivery of his message is further highlighted by his hypnotic vocal harmonies and delivery, which keep the listener captivated from start to finish. The laid back groove of the drums complements the rest of the instrumentation, creating a cohesive listening experience that showcases Bloom’s unparalleled songwriting and smooth vocals.

Lyrically, Bloom’s powerful metaphors and evocative imagery convey the individuality of everyone’s unique journey. He reminds listeners that everybody’s path is different and cannot be entirely understood by anyone else. “Picture frames never fit the whole thing, do they?” is a standout line that serves as a powerful reminder of this message.

Overall, the outstanding production quality of “Frames” showcases Bloom’s artistic growth and unique sound. The song’s depth and Bloom’s inspiring message make it a beautiful and entirely enjoyable track that’s well worth a listen for anyone looking for uplifting and empowering music.
