Luke Frees delivers an immensely emotional single, "If There Ain't A Heaven"
Heartfelt from start to finish, Luke Frees have brightened up the end of our year with an all new single, “If There Ain’t A Heaven”. Keep reading for a closer look into the track, as well as a background on this artist.
Currently residing in Chicago, IL, Luke Frees has been on an absolute tear in 2022, releasing one single (and B-side) per month. Wrapping up an eventful year, his latest “If There Ain’t A Heaven” immediately grips you with its haunting strings, his expressive vocals, and an immensely crisp production. We’re loving everything about it and cannot wait for everyone to celebrate its release with all the listens.
On the background of it all, ultimately this song is about “the blissful feeling of being so completely in love and wrapped up with someone you feel like you can take on the world with”. In this scenario, Luke truly brings justice to these words with the way that he delivers each line in his cadence. It’s an all too relatable feeling of climbing that mountain of love, aiming for the peak of feeling comfortable, and he’s really served it up on a platter for the world to enjoy. Through so many evocative moments in its three and a half minute runtime, there’s such a feeling of sincerity and rawness, two describers that overwhelmingly feel like they’re lacking in today’s musicscape.
Putting the message aside for just a moment though, another major standout lies in this song’s composition and its ability to fill the silent moments with suspense. The instrumentals are grand, that’s a fact, but there’s undeniably still a stripped back feeling about “If There Ain’t No Heaven”. It’s not jam packed with novelty and gimmicks, rather packs a punch through emotion, drama, and his vocals that we can’t get enough of. Considering the output Luke Frees has experienced this year, you’d expect a drop in quality somewhere, but he’s gone above and beyond in highlighting more of his creative streak. If this happens to be your introduction to his music, we can think of no better jumping off point.
