Review: "How It Ends" - Kate Keller


How It Ends by Kate Keller Cover Art

"How It Ends" by Kate Keller tangles listeners into the intense dance of a possible romance with worries and curiosities cycling through the thought-spiral of lyrics in this track. Impatient for an answer to a question she has not asked, the speaker aches for all her signals and unspoken messages of desire to be acknowledged. Through deconstructing interactions and playing out scenarios in her head, the lyrics will captivate you with its urgency, hope, and fear. Ultimately resolved to communicate with the person she hopes to start a romance with, this song will lift you to a place of hope.



Though its powerful lyrics are twinged with worry, this song will immerse you in the comforting wonder of romance in it's uplifting sound. Kate's bright vocals are smooth through the verse, with a hopeful reflection bubbling beneath the surface of her tone. Fast-paced acoustic guitar stumming coasts through the song with an engaging folk rhythm, and electric guitar slowly rings out dynamically throughout the track. With layers of singing adding a cerebral emphasis to the thoughtful lyrics, Kate's vocal range of uplifting highs and comfortable depths infuses "How It Ends" with a dynamic expressive tune. The chorus brings a catchy melody and energizing percussion that captures the happy excitement felt through the message of the track.
