Peer Review: Leo Liebeskind, Where Do I Go Now, Mama?

A straightforward, vintage-sounding folk ditty that doesn’t overstay its welcome – it feels like a traveling song. The vocals capture Bob Dylan’s nasal charm without sacrificing pitch control. A particularly nice touch is a doubled (acoustic!) guitar solo, with harmonies that play off of the vocal melody. The lyrics are repetitive in the style of old folk and there’s not much depth, but they don’t come off as derivative. The second vocal on the third verse is a little disorienting; it’s not a bad idea, but the execution feels awkward. Overall, the song feels like a fun introduction – I'd be curious where else the guitar and voice want to take me.
