Chris Koehn’s introspective lyrics and haunting vocals serve as a gentle reminder to savor the present and understand the impermanence of life. His brother’s death propelled Koehn into music as a form of grieving. Realizing the transformative power of his art—for both himself and his listeners—Koehn embraced his craft with a newfound sense of purpose. His dedication to sharing his music aims to create a communal space where listeners can explore their own emotions and embark on their own paths to healing. Through his songs, Koehn offers a sanctuary for reflection and solace, turning his pain into a shared experience of hope and renewal.
After releasing When Death Is Good News last November, Stillness is Chris Koehn’s latest single from his upcoming album.
Stillness contemplates the relentless tide of information and expectations we all swim through. It gently nudges us to sit quietly, slow down, reflect, and appreciate the natural world and our own selves in silence. The song weaves through various musical elements, building to a powerful emotional peak.
With Tessa Ia’s whispery, silky vocals, Stillness becomes a dark, cathartic experience, evoking the melancholic ethereal tones of Sigur Rós, Chrystabell, and Julee Cruise. It’s a moment of introspection, a pause amidst the chaos, inviting listeners to find solace and clarity in the quiet spaces between the noise.
