Reconciliation with loss can be tumultuous process. Philly-bred singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Yellow Shoots uses his infectious melodies and seamless fusion of progressive rock, R&B, and ambient electronic to articulate this process in his brand new single "Stormy Weather."
For someone whose name spawned from their observation of sound in the color yellow (a condition known as synesthesia), Yellow Shoots interjects ample brush strokes of somber misty grays and blues in "Stormy Weather."
“Stormy Weather’ is about a person losing a relationship or separating ties with someone. It talks about how one doesn’t actually feel the depths or significance at the time they lose a relationship. I tried to demonstrate that I often get hit with that wave of “loss” at an unexpected time, which is often triggered by an unexpected event. Life is odd and awkward for a bit and all of a sudden you get smacked in the face with everything that’s missing, everything you had before.”
