An inviting, timeless-sounding folk track from Kallen Clossy, “Whole Again” enamors in its warm contemplation and pleasant production. The organ-laden “this world will make you and break you,” introspection melds with warming acoustics for a Dylan-esque charm overall. “This world will make you,” Clossy begins during an especially riveting sequence, elongating the vocal presence as rhythms become brisker. The vocal range between suave conciseness and soaring whimsy contribute to a climactic, nostalgic folk immersion throughout.
Matt Costa’s production complements Clossy’s riveting vocal work and instrumentation with seamless charm, thematically centering around an ethos that “the only constant is change.”
