Pinwheel Valley Leans Into Soft Indie Folk in New Single 'Someway'

Pinwheel Valley’s latest single, 'Someway', offers a quiet yet profound meditation on connection and emotional vulnerability. Led by Jordanian-Canadian singer and multi-instrumentalist Qais Khoury, the track unfolds with intimate acoustic guitar, airy atmospherics, and restrained percussion, providing a delicate canvas for Qais’ impassioned vocals. There is a subtle ache in his delivery, a controlled intensity that draws the listener in without ever feeling overwrought.

The song sits comfortably within the space between Indie Folk, Alt-Rock, and Folktronica, blending cinematic textures with intimate songwriting. Its minimalism allows the emotional weight of the lyrics to take center stage, emphasizing the universal yearning for human connection in an increasingly fractured and isolating world.

Pinwheel Valley has long demonstrated a flair for emotional depth and sonic ambition, and 'Someway' continues this trajectory. With production and writing handled entirely by Qais, the track highlights his ability to craft a timeless sound, one that feels both personal and expansive. Fans of Father John Misty, Jeff Buckley, and Nick Murphy will find the song’s quiet intensity deeply resonant, a gentle yet powerful reminder of music’s capacity to reflect the complexities of modern life.
