John Vento - Sweet Cheslie
John Vento is a musician based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Previously, we have shared our looks into John Vento’s exceptional tracks “Not Your Kinda’ Man”, “New Mexico Way” and “That Damn War (Father & Son)”, all excellent songs. Today we are back to share our thoughts on John Vento’s single, “Sweet Cheslie”!
“Sweet Cheslie” serves to honor former Miss USA Cheslie Kryst who died from suicide earlier this year. This song tackles the tough subject of suicide and how some people do not show the signs of how they are feeling, as well as the message that there is always another way even if it is not obvious. I appreciate John Vento a great deal for sharing this song and taking such an impactful approach to suicide prevention, quite literally offering a hand with this positive message.
I feel like John Vento never disappoints with his genuine lyrics and All-American style. You should keep up with John Vento through Facebook and his website. We have “Sweet Cheslie” embedded below - take a listen (trigger warning for suicide/self-harm).
