Unlocking who you’re meant to be is like solving an unsolvable puzzle. Sure, as we grow older, we come closer to discovering exactly who and what we were always meant to be. But the ground and cosmos will freeze over before full-potential is ever truly engaged. Out of Bath, England, world-weary traveler Luke De-Sciscio scrutinizes his past, present and future with only a lonesome acoustic guitar to his aid to treacherously navigate his adventures of the psyche. “I’m whatever is around the corner / I’m wherever my history says,” he sings, embracing a reality of unknown that looms every single day over existence. His off-kilter warble is endearing but hauls immense emotional grit, and it’s at times teary-eyed, other times stone-faced and resilient. “I’m here to find the melody,” he asserts as the guitar continues to babble ferociously. Before you know it, you hang on De-Sciscio’s every word and begin to question the very nature of your reality.
“I’m a Dream Fighting Out a Man” is the third song from his new album, Good Bye Folk Boy, out later this year.
