Salon, So Long. – Charlie (Keeping You Safe)

In the enchanting sonic tapestry of Salon, So Long.’s musical realm, “Charlie (Keeping You Safe)” stands as a poignant masterpiece, born not in a high-tech studio but with an iPhone and a toy microphone/speaker/voice changer combo. This Utah-based composer, instrumentalist, and sound engineer, who nearly lost the battle against despair, has rekindled the flame of his lifelong dream. At 32, he paints melodies without a predetermined script, finding inspiration in life’s profound moments. This track, created on the spot with his 7-year-old son adding his own artistic touch, becomes a testament to the power of raw, unfiltered expression.

“Charlie (Keeping You Safe)” is not merely a composition; it’s a cathartic journey through the artist’s life. Salon, So Long. opens his heart and soul, drawing on personal experiences of loss, isolation, and single parenthood. The ukulele’s simple chords and the hauntingly beautiful melody echo the resilience that emerges from life’s deepest valleys. The echoes of this song go beyond its musical notes; they resonate with the universal themes of struggle, hope, and the unyielding pursuit of dreams.

As you immerse yourself in the soul-stirring waves of “Charlie (Keeping You Safe),” remember that this is more than just a song. It’s an intimate dialogue, a shared moment between artist and listener. Join Salon, So Long. on this heartfelt journey, and let the music weave its spell around you.
