Scott Collins has one of those voices that sounds like it’s been on countless epic journeys, full of wisdom and awareness and a longing for the stability of home. That aspect of his voice is front and center on “For Now,” a song about the passing of time and the knowledge it brings. Scott sent us an alternate version of the track from the one showcased on his new EP Let’s Start Here, recorded by Lindsey Kappa rather than Chet Himes, and we’re entranced by the potency of his and Lexi Cardenas’ collaboration. Cardenas’ forlorn violin is a perfect match for Collins’ yearning voice, amplifying the complex emotions that give the song its weight. Check it out for yourself and then catch Scott and Lexi tomorrow, May 30th, at the Saxon Pub!
