Mixing ’60s folk sounds with contemporary concerns, River Wild‘s EP Talked the Truth was one of our below-the-radar favorites of 2022 (listen on Spotify or Apple Music).
Every song on the EP, which River produced with Dean Watson (@deanerdubs), features introspective, poetic lyrics, and when we spoke with him, River did not give too much away as to their meaning:
This project is my most personal one. It came from a long time of struggle; it took a long time to write, but less to execute once I knew what to do. It wasn’t the easiest process, but it was the most liberating.
The album is about a lot of things, but I prefer to let the listeners create their version of how they feel about this one. Lord knows I go through a roller coaster of emotions from standing still to burned alive. I hope it does to others what it did for me: healing.
Cookie could listen to River sing all day, and has! Lucky us, there’s a new video for his song “Everything is Clear (Lion D’Amour)” out now.
Check out the video, along with some sultry NSFW album art after jump!
