The Story Behind The Song:
Lyrically, this song is an extreme reflection of regret between two lovers who wish it was possible to go back in time. The song paints a very sad situation until the ending lines that offer a mutual sign of hope between the two.
"Why don't we just go back in time, and rewrite our history".
The vocals of Shelly Wilson reach far outside of the bluegrass genre, as she soars vocally while producing a very sultry and passionate delivery. Shaun Richardson's tasteful acoustic guitar track and tremolo-filled mandolin work creates a romantic and updated current singer/songwriter sound. The haunting harmonica work of Todd Parrott is a perfect blend with Deano Graham's vocals, and are simply icing on the cake.
“IF I COULD” stretches the boundaries of multiple genres, while showcasing Deano Graham’s versatility in releasing multiple songs, a creativeness in his songwriting, and a willingness to expand his discography. It’s like nothing you’ve ever heard before — where acoustic meets pop, meets bluegrass, meets easy listening.
