The Arwen Lewis ShowJULIA LOGANjulialogan.com

Accompanied by observant lyrics, bronzed and mellow melodies excellently produced and co-written by Daniel Bengtson soar to hit home the deeper point in songs that honor and long for human connection and respect. It might be their quiet revolt against a world increasingly obsessed with transactional relationships, blow-hard aspirations, and digital ’likes’ rather than a simple ’hello’ on the street.
