Foxfire Magazine September 30, 2025

Dom Moore steps into bolder territory with "Reticence," a track that bends genres while unraveling the complexities of fragile love. Blending the unexpected spontaneity of jazz with the ambient textures of indie rock, the song feels both unpredictable and soothing, like eavesdropping on your own inner dialogue during a moment of truth.

The saxophone’s silky lines intertwine effortlessly with Moore’s warm, resonant vocals, creating a groove that pulses with quiet tension. "Reticence," setting a wedding table, serves as a poignant backdrop lyrically. As Moore reflects on the joy of a couple just beginning their story, he contrasts it with the cracks in his own relationship. The comfort of companionship weighed against the haunting realization that love without permanence may not survive.
