Song(s) of the Day # 2,007 Johanna Samuels


As I get older I start to appreciate Carole King's Tapestry more and more. So the older me appreciates Why Do I Go There from her EP Have a Good One from earlier on this year as one of the best songs I've heard thus far in 2019, while the younger me likes coming upon an artist as promising as this ahead of the curve.


The other songs on Have a Good One are not as immediate as Why Do I Go There, but prove to have assiduous charm of their own, constructed from the same Laurel Canyon inspired DNA.


There's silence, space and thoughtful reflection on all five songs on the EP. Samuels is just 27 but has a wiser head on her shoulders.
