Following the warm, weathered tones of his indie folk anthem ‘Hurricane,’ singer, songwriter, and musician Dom Malin ventures into new sonic territory with his latest single, ‘Keep Out The Rain.’ This Midlands-based artist, known for his americana-tinged acoustic folk, expands his repertoire with an upbeat indie-rock track, tapping into the mutable power of nature to convey a vast array of emotions.
‘Keep Out The Rain’ represents a significant departure from Malin’s usual sound. Built upon his trusty guitar, this track is invigorated by the added oomph of drums and bass, resulting in a more robust, indie-rock aesthetic. The song's catchy riffs and relatable symbols of downpour and shelter resonate deeply, reflecting the efforts required to protect relationships from life's natural ebbs and flows.
“Keep Out The Rain" embodies the spirit of artists like Sam Fender, Bruce Springsteen, and James Bay, marking a pivotal moment in my musical evolution as I delve deeper into playing electric guitar. The inspiration for this song struck me while I was on tour in Germany, specifically in Bad Berleburg. This track is more than just a composition; it reflects my experiences navigating the highs and lows of love and relationships. At its core, the song explores the internal monologue of frustrations stemming from miscommunication and misunderstandings. The chorus captures the intense emotions of longing for resolution and the urge to create a better dynamic in the relationship through active effort, encapsulated in the theme of 'push and pull.'”
The single is accompanied by a video featuring Malin and his musician companions playing ‘Keep Out The Rain’ in a cozy, minimalist studio. His relaxed, unselfconscious demeanour offers a glimpse of what fans can expect from his live performances. This stripped-back, straightforward approach is a hallmark of Malin’s down-to-earth musical persona.
Tracks like ‘Keep Out The Rain’ are motivated by Malin’s altruistic intention to create safe spaces for listeners to process their own emotions. In doing so, he fosters a global community of fans who find solace and comfort in his music.
Dom Malin’s journey from acquiring his first electric guitar at 12 years old to creating music that resonates globally is a testament to his enduring passion and talent. ‘Keep Out The Rain’ marks a new chapter in Malin’s musical evolution, one that promises to captivate listeners with its emotional depth and indie-rock vigour.
