“Time” is an affecting new track from Wes Kirkpatrick, another standout from the Colorado-based artist, who weaves insightful lyricism with a gorgeous array of twinkling piano, somber strings, and harmonious vocal allure. First catching our ears last year with the track/EP “That Kind of Love,” Kirkpatrick succeeds again here with “Time.”

“Every day is a song we sing,” Kirkpatrick lets out during one of many impactful verses, the comparisons of music to the life experience — “try to make the chorus last” and groove-laden dreaming — resonating into sturdy pulses of strings and a magnetic “money never buys you time” introspection. Perspectives of time’s fleeting nature, and how a life focused on monetary accumulation is a wasted one when “all we have is time,” stir within a beautiful chamber-folk production on “Time.”
