Chris Aleshire is a multi-instrumentalist and the brains behind Red Skies Mourning, a solo musical project based in Baltimore. His brand new single is entitled ‘A Beautiful Mess’ and it sees the musician fusing a dream-pop soundscape with a hip-hop beat to create one of the most absorbing and gripping tunes I’ve heard this year! Chris puts in a stellar vocal performance that expertly compliments the music, and adds another layer of intrigue and warmth to the already tantalising track. “My producer wanted to try a slightly more hip-hop vibe on this one,” says Chris. Please thank them for us!
We’ve actually been following Red Skies Mourning for quite some time now. His story of transitioning from military service to music is a unique one, and his love for a wide variety of genres has seen him play in metal bands, punk acts, and even a few cover bands over the years. I really think Chris has found the sound that he’s been searching for with Red Skies Mourning. Raw, emotional, and deeply honest.
The song is a testament to Chris’s skill as a songwriter, musician, and performer. ‘A Beautiful Mess’ is undoubtedly one of the most compelling tunes of the year, and it leaves me craving more!
