In Waiting is the latest album release from Vetle Forsell, and it's a stunning collection of songs that showcase his unique blend of folk and indie rock influences. Forsell's rich, emotive vocals are front and center on every track, supported by a lush array of acoustic and electric instrumentation.
The album opens with the haunting "Alone," which sets the tone for the rest of the record with its sparse, melancholy arrangement and powerful lyrics. From there, Forsell takes listeners on a journey through a range of emotions and musical styles, from the upbeat, foot-stomping "Stuck in the Middle" to the dreamy, atmospheric "Stars."
One of the standout tracks on In Waiting is "Lost and Found," a poignant ballad that showcases Forsell's ability to craft a memorable melody and deliver it with heart-wrenching sincerity. Another highlight is "Echoes," a haunting track that builds to a powerful crescendo and features some of Forsell's most evocative vocal work.
