“The Ride Called Life” is the sort of song that makes you think, and it doesn’t exactly race to make itself known, but lingers with you long. Audrey Loveland delivers a deeply personal Americana- and folk-inflected music. It’s a reflective meditation on power, forgiveness, and the emotional cost of just making it through.
“The Ride Called Life” features organic instrumentation and soft, expressive vocals, cherishing emotional honesty over display. The song unfurls with the quiet assurance of giving you time to think, rather than pushing you to reach a solution.
Loveland is an East Tennessee songwriter with a feel for personal songs, and this song is the brain bringing people’s thinking and feeling together in a place created by life’s unknowns, about how much courage it takes to accept them. It offers companionship and reminds us that contemplating things can be a form of healing.
This single from Loveland’s debut EP, “One Is Not Like the Other,” explores emotional depth and storytelling. She really does make sounds that can soothe, energize, enrage, or make you happy. Loveland focuses on emotional texture and trusts that you will meet the song where it’s at.
“The Ride Called Life” is akin to peace in a world that often churns. It’s one of those songs that steers you through late nights and long drives, even if it feels like nothing else can steer you where you want to go. It is the reminder that strength breathes, listens, and, sometimes, gets going.
