“Rain In The Desert“ by Annelise LeCheminant

Northern California’s singer-songwriter Annelise LeCheminant’s latest single, “Rain In The Desert,” showcases her infectious, exhilarating sound. The song consists of hazy guitars, a mesmerizing drum beat, and Annelise’s angelic vocals, which effortlessly switch from low-toned to soprano-toned notes. From a lyrical standpoint, Annelise’s songwriting is personal, as her music delves into life’s everyday struggles. The “desert” in the title refers to emotional distress, while the “rain” symbolizes growth, hope, and eventually seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

According to Annelise, “Rain In The Desert” “…speaks to the struggle of enduring life’s harshest moments while holding onto hope for something better… It’s an allegory about obtaining something you have worked and prayed for a long time and how you can never return to the feeling of emptiness you felt before.” This poignant message is beautifully intertwined with an emotional instrumental that builds energy throughout, similar to the feeling of never giving up. 

“Rain In The Desert” opens with a hard-hitting guitar melody, instantly grabbing anyone’s attention. Annelise’s angelic yet raspy, harsh, at times, vocals are so captivating to listen to. Lyrics about overcoming hardships, being strong, and rising above are flawlessly executed. 

“Rain in The Desert” was produced by LeCheminant and Matt Wilder. The track is the title single of her four-song EP that includes “Passport,” “Last To Know,” and “Before I Believed You.” The EP is available now on December 13 on major music streaming platforms.
