Toronto-based singer-songwriter Stephanie Braganza consumes on the personal new single “Until We Meet Again,” a stirring ballad written as a tribute to her late dog, Pom Pom. The production builds with gentle momentum, moving from acoustic-set smitten warmness into twinkling guitars and bright string additions, as the lyrical fixation moves from adoration to grieving and a hope to meet again one day. The result is a gripping, relatable success that approaches loss with artful cohesion and hope.
Breezy acoustic strums and crisp guitar glistening combine with spaciously inviting qualities, as Braganza’s vocals emerge with a soothing sense of introspection. “Those eyes, looked through my soul. Your smile, made me whole,” her vocals let out, capturing the special emotions when experiencing life with someone special. The lyric that “you redefined the joy in my life” bolsters that important connection.
The ensuing chorus renders a more heartrending, melancholic quality — yearning for when “we meet again” amidst heart-tugging strings and sturdy guitars. A captivating bridge, upping the fervency in asking “why’d you have to go?” alongside a spirited rock/pop balladry, stirs as well — then moving into a sating conclusion. “Until We Meet Again” is an impactful success from Stephanie Braganza, exuding love and loss with relatable, sincere immersion.
