An acclaimed filmmaker and accomplished musician, Tom DiCillo bring his storytelling brilliance to his latest album “SHOT OF BLUE”. This 12 track collection delves into the depths of love, weaving a tapestry of emotions with cinematic imagery and evocative melodies. I couldn’t stop replaying this album, it’s that good and a perfect example of why this artist is one to watch. Tom spent four years working on this musical project alone and has made an album that feels both personal and perfectly polished.
Americana, alt rock and dream pop are blended together with DiCillo’s rich and captivating vocals. The instrumentals of these tracks are rich and truly impressive and supported by polished and creative production. The production here is skillful with a lush backdrop that perfectly complements the vocal performances. My favorite track tracks are the title song, a mesmerizing piece of art and “Waltz” a hauntingly beautiful love song with great instrumentation. The accompanying music video adds to the song’s romantic reverie. Another highlight is “All The Lovers” with its poignant lyrics and unforgettable melody.
“SHOT OF BLUE” is a journey worth taking from start to finish. Every detail of the lyrics, melodies and production is a testament to Tom’s dedication. Honestly, I’m a new fan. I was hooked on this album instantly and can’t wait to listen to his earlier work. It’s a masterpiece that deserves the spotlight.
