‘Dear Departed’, Sam Burton's second album, full of sweetness
Sam Burton's second album, ‘Dear Departed’, was born from a period of rebirth. After leaving the life he had built in Los Angeles, he returned to Utah for a few months to help a friend build their home. This proved to be a true metaphor for the artist's life: "It was a homecoming. My inner world really opened up." ‘Dear Departed’ offers Burton's take on the themes of eternal love, carried by his songwriting. Even if he himself approaches it with skepticism, the idea of returning to fundamental musical forms to unearth universal human feelings is poignant.
