#mokler

 I first heard this in late October/ early November 2013. I remember wanting to listen to something meaningful, touching, soothing and engaging all at once. Yes, I think I was in one of those moods and I came across a wonderful EP called Skybound by a very talented young man, Lewis Mokler. 

"The Traveller" is what first caught my attention, beginning with a calming acoustic sound which continues throughout the song. For me, it was the simplicity of the notes and lyrics that came together to tell a beautiful story that captured me. 

It often reminds me of those scenes in films where a character is travelling on a train. A suitable song for reminiscing, thinking and relaxing.

Lewis Mokler tends to cover folk and acoustic music which I think is great if you are fond of those genres, having said that, I feel his music speaks to the masses rather than a genre specific people.

Aside from "The Traveller", I especially loved "Skybound". It is definitely the most romantic of the six songs on his EP, although, I must say I do love all the songs and have it on as a playlist.
