In a music landscape where true guitar-driven storytelling is becoming something of a lost art, Samson’s Riddle brings a much-needed breath of fresh air with “Here Today”, a heartfelt, spiritually grounded track that lets both the vocals and guitar speak straight from the soul.
The song opens with a slow, emotional intro, rich with bluesy tones and tasteful bends that immediately set a reflective tone. But don’t get too comfortable, the track soon blasts open into a showcase of technical guitar mastery that feels less like showing off and more like testifying. It’s not just shredding for the sake of it, the guitar here genuinely feels like a second vocalist, pouring out emotion and passion with every note. You can tell the player’s heart is wired directly to those strings.
Lyrically, “Here Today” centers around a powerful truth: yesterday is gone, tomorrow is not promised, and today is what we’ve been given. It’s a reminder to live with intention and faith, honoring what God has placed in our hands while trusting Him with what’s to come. The message is deeply grounded yet uplifting, made even more impactful by the raspy, earnest vocal delivery that pairs perfectly with the song’s emotional weight.
Samson’s Riddle doesn’t rely on trends or gimmicks, instead, he deliver authenticity, musicianship, and message, all wrapped in a rock sound that feels both classic and fresh. “Here Today” is more than just a song...it’s a reflection, a challenge, and a celebration of the moment we’ve been given.
Standout moment: That soaring guitar solo halfway through, where the instrument doesn’t just sing...it preaches.
Recommended for fans of: John Mayer (live blues side), Third Day, Joe Bonamassa, and Southern rock with a spiritual backbone.
