Peter Patrick Pedro’s “Fireworks” – New Music Review

Peter Patrick Pedro, the NYC-based indie folk artist, just dropped "Fireworks"—and honestly? It’s the kind of slow-burn track that wraps around you like a warm blanket on a particularly rough day.

This isn’t your typical indie offering, though. There’s this gentle country twang weaving through the slowcore foundation that somehow makes everything feel… manageable. Like Pedro’s telling you it’s okay to not have all the answers right now.

The song builds on these steady chord progressions that don’t demand your attention—they earn it. "Fireworks" whispers rather than shouts, carrying this patient energy that feels almost medicinal in today’s chaotic world.

Pedro’s vocals? There’s something there that’ll remind you of Creed-era post-grunge, but don’t let that scare you off. His delivery stays warm and fuzzy, perfectly suited for the track’s intimate atmosphere.

For newcomers to Pedro’s artistry, "Fireworks" serves as an ideal entry point. It showcases his ability to craft supportive soundscapes without overwhelming the listener.

At just two minutes and fifty seconds, the track doesn’t overstay its welcome. But here’s the thing—it leaves this lasting impression that lingers long after the final note fades, like a brief but striking light cutting through darkness.
