Red River - Rocky Votolato

In an unusual move, I'm writing about an artist I know nothing about, and a song that's equally as mysterious. I found a rogue song on a YouTube playlist, which I'd added at one point or another, but had no recollection when, or why. Never one to ignore unheard songs, I listened, and was beyond impressed. It's a song which washes over you in a breeze of acoustic wonderfulness, but if you intend to really listen, is held together with meaningful and powerful lyrics. It's understated, yet driven enough to belong in a film soundtrack. I'm still clueless about this artist, and the origin of the song, and somehow I don't want to know. As if it might ruin the magic.
