Daydreaming (feat. Bart Topher) is Backstrom’s Single Out Now
The song captures the moment when you decide to leave everything behind if only for a while, to live in the present and forget the past.
From the first guitar arpeggio, there’s a sense of space and vastness, like a tumbleweed rolling across an empty desert, pushed by an unseen wind.
The instrumentation creates images in your mind: a slide guitar mimics a distant mirage shimmering with the promise of something better, while the violin floats in like a cooling breeze offering brief moments of relief.
Occasionally, the percussive elements sneak in like rattlesnakes, present yet hidden, adding to the song’s cinematic Western feel.
Bart Topher’s vocal performance is deeply affecting, matching the song’s intensity with raw emotion. You can hear the longing in every note as he tells the story of a man trying to break free from the weight of his past.
A bittersweet quality in the lyrics resonates, making Daydreaming more than just a song—it feels like a vivid journey.
The track is a testament to Backstrom’s exceptional composition skills, blending country and Western elements with a modern sensibility, creating something nostalgic and intense.
While the protagonist’s escape may only be a dream, the yearning it evokes is universal, making this single a standout in his catalog.
