RØST’S NEW SINGLE “PEONY” IS CALM, MELODIC INDIE POP

Røst is a singer/songwriter from Ukraine with a pleasant and nice enough track called “Peony.” The alternative single is textured, nuanced, and lush. A peony is a flower. The pastoral song is sort of akin to that. It sounds soothing, pretty to the ear, and gives the listener a good feeling.

Røst is trying to convey a sense of vulnerability in “Peony.” He wants to make peace in his heart and find solace within himself. Despite the moments of darkness he grapples with and the inner despair he is going through, Røst is searching for the elusive “eternal light.” “Peony” is a personal voyage into introspection and finding greater self-expression.
