Love can often seem as a megamix Rubik’s cube. A supposedly near-impossible puzzle holds a brilliance behind brightly-colored squares that shift as frequently as life itself. It’s unfathomable sometimes. Turning to his faith for an answer, indie-folk songwriter Hayden Everette winds through an acoustic configuration of plush soundscapes that twist together into a crafty latticework of the human consciousness. “Loud” is not exactly that, at first, as the words trickle down upon a lone acoustic guitar and only silvering accompaniment, but soon, his wispy reflections swell and burst into a heavenly spritz of percussion and a growing realization that the love he’s so desperately sought is right around him already. “Nothing here could block your truth,” he sings. His voice splashes in calculated measurements that hit right at the heart, continuing to demonstrate his strengths of evocative storytelling.
