An Uplifting Journey: Open Water’s Album ‘Above The Waterline’
Are you in need of a refreshing splash of musical inspiration? If so, look no further than the newest album from Open Water, inspired by the coastal town of Deal in the kingdom of Kent.
‘Above The Waterline’, released this past March 25th, is a product of Open Water’s inspiring and heartfelt journey and brings a truly unique sound to the table. It was 2017 when lead singer Joanne Doolan underwent vocal surgery to remove two cysts, a surgery with no guarantee of success. Her triumphant success in this endeavour is what shines through ‘Above the Waterline’, with each of its 11 tracks taking inspiration from the surrounding landscape.
From the enthralling story of a soldier posted at Dover Castle that was the basis for the song ‘Lone Tree Hill’ to the heartbreaking story of a Winter Bride left at the alter, the music will leave you mesmerised.
The lead single for the album, ‘Summer Cries’, layers beautiful acoustic guitars and the accompanying music video takes place in the surrounding Kentish woodlands. All these elements cumulatively create a wonderful sense of warmth that embraces the listener throughout the album’s entirety.
Together with their inspiring journey, ‘Above The Waterline’ is a work of beauty and it will surely leave you wanting more. So if you’re in need of an uplifting and engaging soundtrack for your day, experience the power of Open Water and ‘Above the Waterline’.
