Featured Tune: "Changes" from Sabina Chantouria
reviews
Riding the Winds of Reinvention
Sabina Chantouria’s latest single, Changes, is a soulful, shimmering anthem of resilience wrapped in Americana gold. From the first few notes, it’s clear this isn’t just another feel-good track about transformation — it feels lived-in. There's grit in the grace, strength in the softness, and a quiet kind of bravery woven into every beat.
Produced by David Jenkins (yes, the same Jenkins who's worked with Dolly Parton), the track doesn’t just sound polished — it breathes. The rhythm section, featuring Kenny Aronoff on drums and Jorgen Carlsson on bass, gives the song a heartbeat that pulses with intention. Doug Pettibone’s guitars slide in like sunbeams through storm clouds, and Ed Roth’s piano flourishes lend a cinematic quality to the whole experience.
But the magic lies in Chantouria’s voice — a velvet instrument that never overreaches, yet always reaches you. It floats gently above the arrangement, commanding without shouting, aching without breaking. You can feel the tug of uncertainty, the weight of letting go, and the quiet determination to leap anyway.
Changes is not just a track for the moment — it’s a track about the moment. A comforting hand on your shoulder when you’re standing at life’s crossroads, unsure of what’s next. And Sabina? She’s not just singing — she’s walking the path with you.
