A stirring folk track with shades of gospel in its warming, melodic ascent, “Wanting More” is a recent track from Joe Holt. The first single via his upcoming album I Love You, Say It Back, “Wanting More” is described by Holt as “about yearning for more; more success, more time with loved ones, more fulfillment.” Gentle piano and acoustics pair with introspective lyrical qualities — “I’m hungry for time with you,” and other lines emphasize feelings of dissatisfaction. “And that satisfaction ultimately comes from within,” Holt explains. “Wanting More” has us thoroughly anticipating that upcoming full-length.
