Mark Pulsipher /// Wishing Well

Independent singer-songwriter Mark Pulsipher’s outlook on life cannot be seen as anything short of admirable. A man who has experienced more than his share of life tragedies, he refuses to let his lowest moments define him for the worse and has instead channeled his passion and emotions into his art. In his latest single “Wishing Well,” he reflects on the tribulations that have shaped him, ultimately focusing on the ways they have taught him to grow.

A series of slowly strummed cords on an acoustic guitar kickstart the piece and set the mood for the somber performance. The notes reverberate with a deep sense of echoing resonance, they fill the room with their progression.

From the get-go, the lyrics prove to be gut-wrenching and come from a place deep in the artist’s heart. Even from the delivery of the opening line “Silence in the room, whispers do consume.” we can hear the connection the artist has with their music and a passion that seems to come straight from their soul. The artist’s monotone delivery of the vocals reflects a sense of stoic reflection that magnifies the narrative’s emotional weight.

Through the way Pulsipher allows himself to be vulnerable through his work, we feel not just empathy for his story, but a genuine connection to him as a person on a human level. His work plays as raw, honest, and inspirational with every verse and allows the listener to fully immerse themselves in the world they create with great ease.
