Dellwood Unveils New Single ‘Wear It On Our Sleeve’

Dellwood, the project of Minneapolis-based artist and producer Chris Bartels, shares his brand new single Wear It On Our Sleeve, a delicate and heartwarming indie-folk gem. 

 

Out now via Anthem Falls, Wear It On Our Sleeve finds the talented artist reflecting on childhood and the way old memories slowly take on new meaning with time. It circles around the idea of how we quietly carry childhood wounds into adulthood, the way memory shifts over time, and the strange mix of clarity and confusion that comes from looking back years later. It finds one taking the decision to face those memories rather than hide from them, to break the cycle and choose differently. A song that leans into the quieter of Dellwood's sound, Wear It On Our Sleeve pairs his soothing, harmony-heavy vocals with layered fingerpicked acoustic guitars, muted rubber bridge classical textures, subtle piano keys, and delicate violin plucks that come together to create an overall warm and intimate atmosphere.
