Fresh music from ‘Sail Cassady’

When building a musically mystical and introspective atmosphere, Sail Cassady is the place to look. The creative genius behind the music is singer-songwriter Colin Craveiro who is originally from Victoria, British Columbia. Back in 2012, Craveiro read ‘On the road’ by Jack Kerouac, the descriptions of adventure, imagery and art captured within a single book sparked his imagination and the prospect of conveying these same concepts in a musical form.

His story explores lived experience of self-discovery, a battle between faith and identity and the journey to acceptance. In previous releases, you can expect to hear a beautifully formulated sound, gentle twangy riffs that accompany his mellowed, folk voice. Magic. Picture afternoon strolls on lesser-trodden paths under swaying trees, filled with a sense of adventure and connection with nature.

His new single, released in 2021, is a nostalgic representation of the time spent in lockdown reflecting, evaluating, and looking to what the future holds. “Old Green House” takes a more ethereal feel to it, using echoes and repetition, it is reminiscent of a traditional hymn in some respects. Using the old green house, with ‘ageing rooms’, as a metaphor for his old life, and his progression from the now distant memories, it illustrates his past so poetically.
