Spotted: Local Color – A Gentle Pull Towards Better Things

Today I’m introducing you to Benja Schick and the project Local Color. Benjamin lives in Nashville and has been playing music professionally since the age of 14. Benja is originally a drummer and works with many things in the record industry.

The track A Gentle Pull Towards Better Things was released on the album The Sacred Birth which came out on the 8th of September, 2023.

Tell us something about your track A Gentle Pull Towards Better Things!
This composition fits into the story of my album as a turning point for the character (or listener). The album tells a dynamic story of love, self discovery, loss, and grief. In the grieving there finally comes a desire to pull oneself up and slowly pursue hope, joy, and a new future. I wanted this song to encapsulate that feeling, the feeling of a soft “pull” towards better life after loss. I wrote this in 2020 and recorded it last Fall in the basement studio of my old house in Virginia. 

Thank you for this Benja!
