Connecticut-bred indie-folk artist Michael Suddes just dropped "Dragonfly," and honestly? It’s the kind of track that wraps around you like a warm blanket on a rainy afternoon.
The song showcases Suddes’ distinctive vocal style—graspy, staccato delivery that echoes Mike Posner’s sweetness but carries its own unique texture. His grounding guitar work creates an intimate atmosphere that feels like he’s performing right in your living room.
"Count to ten, it will be brand new/ ‘Cause I worked hard to see this through/ Don’t ask me how, I have no clue/ ‘Cause I made up my own rules."
These lyrics dance with the lightness of dragonfly wings, fluttering toward unknown destinations while radiating pure optimism. There’s something beautiful about the confidence he expresses in carving his own artistic path—it’s refreshing, really.
Suddes’ musical journey began at 13 when he first picked up a guitar. Later, he dove into jazz studies in the Pacific Northwest, but his story doesn’t end there.
What sets him apart? His background in the trades—welding, contracting, house painting. This blue-collar experience shaped not just his calloused hands but also the authenticity that permeates his songwriting.
