Fusing sharply melodic keys and guitar work, “True Sleep Waits” is a new single from Ferrn, described by the Chicago-based artist as a “trippy dance pop song about staying up all night (in a bad way).”
References to “restless thoughts,” venture hypnotically amidst twinkling keys, expanding into the “colors,” lyrical output as glistening guitar twangs glide alongside the vocal caressing. The drive into the two-minute mark is enjoyably dynamic, spanning from effervescent keys to blaring guitar distortion — and cohesively succeeding all the same. “True Sleep Waits” is a melodic stirrer from Ferrn.
