Taste Test: Harrison Storm renders acoustic iteration of ‘Breathe Again’
The musician reworks his song into a more smoldering, vulnerable performance.
Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones
When you’re faced with unimaginable blunder, you find it hard to surmise when and if the clouds will part and the rain’ll stop. But it does. And you reemerge far wiser and more thick-skinned. Singer-songwriter Harrison Storm dismantles his own song and rebuilds it into an acoustic, reflective centerpiece ⏤ a song that carries even more weight. On the new version of “Breathe Again,” Storm strips away the thumping percussion and equips with only his guitar and tender instrumentation that swells with trickling mood. “I can see everything now,” he cries. The pain sticks in his throat, and in such a setting, he fashions the misery and eventually the clarity he witnessed in his personal life. A heartbreak nearly crushed him, and you could argue he had to wallow in the ruin a bit before making his trek out of it all. Now, he sits on the mountain top and lets it all flood out of his lungs.
