Stars Go Dim, aka Chris Cleveland, has mastered the art of retro-pop with his brand new album, ‘Roses,’ an exquisite collection of songs that sound like they’ve been hidden away in a classic ’70s songbook for decades. Yet there’s something wildly refreshing about his signature soulful vocals, glossy pop production and spiritual lyrics, and he’s crafting an inviting visual world to match, track-by-track.
Revealing the latest instalment to the album’s radiant journey, the singer-songwriter delivers his most heartwarming video yet with ‘Jesus Works.’ Featuring a live performance surrounded by the album’s floral symbolism, the results are pure and simple, highlighting the uplifting power of live music and a fleeting sense of hope.
Leading a sunlit room of musicians, Cleveland sings and plays a white grand piano, showcasing a masterclass in both musicianship and emotive performance. Accompanying a stunning part of his first co-produced album, his authenticity shines bright, radiating joy, worship and signs of an artist who has discovered his musical calling.
As he puts it best himself, “If we just slow down, if we just take a look around, if we just say, ‘God, how can I meet You here?’ we’d see that God is moving and working all the time. That’s what ‘Roses’ is about.”
From writing and producing alongside the likes of Justin Bieber and Elton John to achieving No. 1 radio smash in the U.S. with ‘You Are Loved,’ Stars Go Dim has made his mark over the years, but this loving ode to nostalgia is really something special.
