Sounding like the simple but folk and classic rock songs of the 1970’s is Michael Askin‘s new song. “Aimless as the Wind” has feel good instrumentation and lyrical content that feels perfectly fitting for driving across America on the road trip of your dreams. The song seems to roll right along and sets a great traveling mood as the miles are adding up. The singer-songwriter sings passionately about feeling free and the vocal delivery really transmits that vibe to the listeners ears and lets them feel free for a moment as well. Michael Askin has a wonderfully folky voice and combined with the perfect instrumentation, the singer-songwriter has a standout folk track that is perfect for road tripping and adventuring!

“This song is about taking a solo road trip down to see family in Florida, driving from the early spring cold of the north to the warmth of the south. We tried to capture an early 70s Byrds Vibe with the production. Hopefully, we came close!”
– Michael Askin
