Aren’t we lucky as listeners to live in a time when blending genres isn’t just normalized but celebrated?
“Keep It Open” by Montreal singer-songwriter Sara-Danielle is a delicious indie-pop and neo-soul swirl — light and airy, yet soulfully deep and reflective, with vocals delivered in both English and French.
Lyrically, it’s open-minded and inviting, with lines like: “Take me as I am / Take it as a sign / Maybe I can change / Things won't stay the same / Can’t help it, I’ll keep it open…”
The instrumentation perfectly complements this airy energy, featuring a groove-worthy R&B drum beat, acoustic guitar, and trippy, whirring keys that float in the high end.
It’s the kind of song that leaves you feeling refreshed after every listen — a true breath of fresh air.
