Bre Kennedy’s Trouble on my Mind hits the site with a splash of Nashville soul. With a voice of pure velvet, this is an artist that has carved out her own territory in Music City. Check out the video above, and you’ll see what I mean.
This Nashville singer and songwriter found inspiration in her own journey. Soon after making the decision to follow her ambitions and move to Nashville, she wrote this song. It’s a ballad that comes from the stress that is inevitable when making a change. However, when she exercised that stress into art, we find the story of courage that comes along. Though it’s low-key, it isn’t mournful. It’s the story of the beautiful side of growth.
Bre Kennedy’s Trouble on my Mind: Style and Video
Kennedy combines a soulful, raspy voice with elegant writing and a low-key, ambient tone to the song’s construction. She has one of those highway drifter vibes that makes for a fantastic atmosphere for a singer focused on songwriting. The best way to describe her voice and style is like black velvet—as if you walked into an infamous Nashville dive bar and discovered a jewel. She creates songs that feel like a walk through your memories. They’re contemplative and deep.
This is mirrored in Bre Kennedy’s Trouble on my Mind music video through the way it was shot. The black and white color palette and intimate performance from Kennedy is complemented by a well-lit studio and high-quality editing. It kind of reminded me of a late 90’s pop-country fusion, something like Shania Twain with a soft, lulling dobro. Or am I crazy? Judge for yourselves and let us know what you think!
