Matt Carstens Drops New Single ‘High’
South African, 21-year-old singer-songwriter Matt Carstens has just unveiled his brand new single High, a song about love that is doomed to fail.
What instantly drew me towards this song was its gorgeous acoustic guitar plucks and his rich, smooth vocals that are packed with so much soul and emotion that make the song instantly recognisable. I am a sucker for acoustic guitar-based melodies and this one is gorgeous!! You can feel the honesty in his songwriting which is wrapped around a feel-good, upbeat indie-pop production that is perfect for radios! Check it out below!
Speaking about High Matt said,
The main message is that we should all try to live in the moment despite our fear of getting hurt or being unsure of the future. Pain is hard to deal with, but it is also a very important part of the spectrum of human emotion; we all share it and the best way to deal with it is to find a way to grow from it. In the end, we should respect ourselves, live with as few regrets as we can and learn not to neglect our own wellbeing when focussing on that of another.
