Welcome Home by Rene Saucier



Welcome Home is song one can easily put in a flashback sequence in a Capra-esque film. It's a country rock style, easy going tune, that makes this critic imagine a sunny drive to the Hamptons with the top down  wearing cool 70's shades.


The acoustic guitar and mandolin play around each other with great simplicity and ease. The mix is near perfect; every instrument is heard and clearly and everything is in the right place.


There is soul here. It's instant and calming. The length is just long enough to want more, so repeated listening is furthered.


The song instantly places one into a melancholic sentiment, but without the cheesy groan that so many others do; this is why we chose this song as one of our favorites. 
It's done so well it makes song production look easy, when we all know how hard it can be.


What's missing; yet without real need, are lyrics. 
I would like to hear someone try and put lyrics on this, just for my own interests; yet
Welcome Home stands on its own, as an instrumental; in a way it captures the imagination enough that the listener subconsciously puts words and images to the song; 
like a Rorschach test.


Easily placeable in the Film/Television market, and kind to the ears;
Welcome Home, by Rene Saucier, is one of the favorites around the office.
