Sarah McGuinness has given us a holiday treat with her beautiful cover of Joni Mitchell’s “River” and the bonus track “Christmas Everyday (No More Sad Songs)”. She has done an incredible job with the cover of “River”. Sarah’s voice is powerful and rich and she sings with passion, capturing the wistful longing that makes this Christmas classic so beloved. The instrumentation is gentle, beautiful and supports her vocals perfectly.
The bonus song shifts the mood completely and infuses the season with upbeat energy and festive joy. The song is a celebration of the Christmas spirit with cascading jingle bells and lively instrumentation. The songs are well produced and recorded, and Sarah’s unique vocal style and heartfelt delivery make them a standout addition to any holiday playlist.
Sarah has undoubtedly gained a new fan in me with this release. Her captivating voice, impressive vocal ability, and stylistic versatility shine throughout both songs. I like how she can sing sad songs and still be happy and how she can sing happy songs and still be sad, there is something for everyone. I am looking forward to seeing what she does in the coming months as her career progresses. This is a talent to watch and I am sure that Sarah McGuinness will go places.
