‘Hear Your Voice’ by Mark Elliott is the newest song by the acclaimed country musician. Released on the second of July 2021, it debuted on Apple Music Country’s “Best New Songs” playlist, and for good reason. Starting off with an upbeat guitar and banjo, Elliott is able to lyrically capture the feeling of melancholy through lyrics while still maintaining a bubbly nature overall.
The song tells a story about wanting to rekindle a romance with an old lover, but the only way he can ever truly communicate with them is over the phone, no matter how hard he tries. It’s a story of longing, the hope that one day this love may be as powerful as it once was, and the knowledge that in the end, nothing will ever truly change.
Despite the gloomy nature of the lyrics, Elliott manages to maintain an uplifting instrumental, which creates an exciting song. This balance creates a perfect track that will leave any country fan desperate to hear more from him and will become a staple on any country playlist. His raspy yet well trained voice will draw listeners in for him to share his tale, and while nodding their heads to the catchy beat of the song, listeners will view the story of heartbreak in their minds.
Elliott provides an authentic, tangible window into his life, and through his honesty in songwriting, is able to capture the hearts of anyone who listens to ‘Hear Your Voice’.
