Stirring across both moody folk spaciousness and emotive rock expanses, “fairweather friend” is a dynamic and impactful single from Landry Lowrimore. “Threads have names and eyes of a needle,” an introspective vocal presence lets out, navigating seamlessly amidst solemn guitar twangs and slight percussion. A vibrant guitar presence pairs with an escalated vocal vigor — “riding high in the wind, ’til it’s dark again” — that ponders incoming cold/darkness, injecting ominousness and yearning for normalcy following the initially mellow folk setting.

An especially resonating section takes hold after the three-minute turn, showing enjoyable tonal versatility — both in the rousing rock ‘n’ roll flashes and the added effervescent texture that lingers as the chorus re-emerges. “fairweather friend” is a fantastic introduction to Landry Lowrimore, who we’re looking forward to hearing more from.
