Emerging from Vancouver's vibrant indie scene, Myles from Home, led by the multifaceted Myles Hildebrand, has been making waves with their genre-blending sound. Their latest single, "Almost Everything (But I Don't See You)," offers a poignant departure from their usual funk and jazz-infused rock, delving into a more acoustic, introspective realm.

The track opens with delicate acoustic guitar strums, immediately setting a tone of intimacy and vulnerability. Hildebrand's vocals, rich and emotive, take center stage, weaving a narrative of longing and introspection. The addition of harmonica lends a subtle country flair, adding depth and texture to the composition. As the song progresses, it builds from its gentle beginnings into a dramatic crescendo, reflecting the tumultuous journey of the emotions conveyed. However for us, it’s really his vocals that outshine everything here. Their straight conviction and emotion is spine tingling!

Lyrically, "Almost Everything (But I Don't See You)" explores themes of absence and yearning. Hildebrand's storytelling is both personal and universal, allowing listeners to find their own reflections within the verses. The production is both booming and nuanced, ensuring that each instrumental layer complements rather than overshadows the others. This balance highlights the song's dynamic range, from its soft whispers to its powerful climaxes.

While Myles from Home is known for their energetic live performances that blend funk, jazz, and rock elements, this single showcases their versatility and depth as artists. It's a testament to their ability to traverse genres while maintaining a cohesive and authentic sound.
