Minimal instrumentation sets the tone, gentle guitar lines and subtle textures that leave plenty of space for emotion to breathe. It’s the kind of simplicity that feels intentional, not sparse, like a canvas washed in soft autumn colors. The addition of Helen Walford’s vocals adds a striking layer of emotional depth. Her delivery is tender yet strong, balancing Michellar’s poetic storytelling with a heartfelt resonance that lingers long after the song fades.
“September” is steeped in nostalgia. It’s a song about looking back at summers gone by, remembering the warmth and light, even as the days shorten and shadows lengthen. Inspired by folk legends such as James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, and Bob Dylan, Michellar channels the timeless power of folk to stir memory and reflection. This influence is clear in both the melody and lyrical style, picturesque, intimate, and evocative.
