Quirky and meaningful, ‘Artist’s Rut’ greatly focuses on its storytelling, exploring the conflicts between wishes and reality, and on a wider level the relationship between darkness and light. Penned by British songstress Louise Burke, the track showcases her elegance and nuanced artistry, particularly when it comes to her evocative, luscious vocal tone.
Built on charming alt-folk and country-flavoured stylings, ‘Artist’s Rut’ is a rather playful tune, although its lyricism delves into deeper territories. As Louise explains: “It examines the push and pull between artistic aspirations and personal obligations”. Such a dualism is certainly relatable, with everyone experiencing the constant choice between what’s desired and what’s necessary.
Also a talented actor and an international translator, Louise Burke appeared on the hit TV show The Crown, a feature that speaks volumes about her creativity and cathartic qualities.
