Fans of Lana Del Rey’s crooning ballad “Summertime Sadness” will feel at home in Kelsy Karter’s “Sad Sad Summer”. Stirringly soulful vocals remind fondly of Amy Winehouse. Stay for the transition at 2:10, where the guitar work reads more psychedelic and builds dramatically against a rising vocal melody. “Sad Sad Summer” is the perfect companion for reflection during the upcoming dog days of summer.
