Did anyone say Americana? We have just come across an absolutely delightful tune, going by the name of ‘Stained Glass Window Panes’. Built over the classic recipe of fiddles, acoustic guitars and elegant, feathery drums, the song is the perfect poster for the Mike Montrey Band. Hailing from New Jersey, the talented singer and songwriter heading the project is rather well known in the Americana and Country community, having worked with a wide number of peeps in the industry.
Crowning a successful career, ‘Stained Glass Window Panes’ is a living example of how a simple song can often be the most rewarding listening experience. Walking down a traditional path, Mike Montrey packs his material with relatability and catchiness, aiming for both the ear and the heart. His vocals, raw, cathartic and evocative, are a fitting vehicle for the project’s nuanced storytelling.
Speaking about the inspiration behind the record, Montrey explains: “It’s a tender homage to my late mother. This song sets the tone for an album that delves into love, time, and mortality—those forces shaping our lives.”
