Championing witty, experienced storytelling, Canadian singer and songwriter Mark Rosal delivers acoustic gem with a knack for Country and Folk vibes. A mature artist, he can boast a very productive career, which started in 2019 and count more than 20 singles released to date. ‘Needle in a Haystack’ is the latest effort in Rosal’s catalogue, and in it, the listeners will find the basis of his sound: acoustic guitar, light keys such as organ and piano, and his gritty, charismatic vocals, guiding us through a story that’s never obvious, and always interesting.
Where does his complex storytelling come from? Well, Mark has been long studying human behaviours and the human mind, constantly working on personal growth. After years of psychotherapy, he possesses a deep knowledge of himself, a fascinating feature, in an artist. All of the above informs his songwriting activities to this day. Musically, the Canadian talent explains to take inspiration from “Bob Dylan, Bob Marley, Leonard Cohen, Gordon Lightfoot, and Van Morrison”.
‘Needle in a Haystack’ is at the same time a nostalgic poignant song, and a sort of hopeful personal hymn into being in control and self-sufficient. A charming guitar and some piano riffing introduce the song, before Rosal’s evocative vocals jump in, guiding the listener through a sweet, rewarding sonic experience.
