Classical folk rock ballad with a driving mid-tempo pulse, bowed strings, fingerpicked acoustic guitar, and steady live drums; verse leans intimate and bare, pre-chorus opens with rising cello and harmony lift, chorus lands wide with full band and stomp-clap accents. Lead vocal is close-mic and vulnerable, with stacked doubles on the hook, soft group responses in parentheses, and a short violin turn between sections. Bright, cinematic, rootsy mix with a polished low end and warm room bloom., folk, rock, classical
