Holly Near - Watch Out
Review by Oluwatobi Williams
Holly Near's album "Watch Out" is a powerful collection of songs that address important social issues such as war, oppression, and discrimination. The album features Near's signature blend of folk, rock, and blues music, with her distinctive voice delivering heartfelt lyrics that resonate with listeners.
The opening track, "Foolish Notion," sets the tone for the album with its driving rhythm and bold message about the dangers of blind patriotism. Other standout tracks include "Fight Back," a call to action against injustice, and "1000 Grandmothers," a tribute to the wisdom and strength of older women.
Near's collaborations with other artists on the album, such as the haunting duet with Cris Williamson on "Waterfall" and the powerful gospel-infused "I Am Willing," add depth and diversity to the overall sound.
