Anton Commissaris’s latest single, “Keep My Faith in Love,” is a luminous blend of soul, jazz, and quiet optimism—a track that feels both timeless and refreshingly sincere. It’s a song about devotion, not just to a person but to the very concept of love itself. In a musical world often dominated by fleeting emotions, Anton reminds us that love, at its best, is an act of endurance.
From the first notes, “Keep My Faith in Love” establishes its mood with graceful restraint. The gentle bossa nova groove, warm electric piano, and fluid bassline invite listeners into an atmosphere that feels like a cross between a smoky late-night lounge and a calm Sunday morning. It’s tender and grounded, with a mid-tempo rhythm that flows naturally, allowing the emotion to breathe. The centerpiece—an expressive flugelhorn solo—adds a touch of sophistication and soul, giving the song a cinematic warmth that lingers long after the final chord fades.
Anton’s vocal performance is intimate yet confident, full of quiet conviction. His delivery carries the emotional depth of classic crooners like Frank Sinatra and Donny Hathaway, yet there’s also a personal vulnerability that feels modern and real. When he sings lines such as “The best things take a while / I wanna see you smile / Gonna keep my faith in love,”you believe him. It’s not the grand gestures that make this song powerful—it’s the small, truthful moments.
Musically, Anton draws from an impressive palette. The track weaves together influences from Stevie Wonder’s soulful optimism, Antonio Carlos Jobim’s rhythmic elegance, and Ray Charles’s emotional grit. But rather than imitating, he integrates these styles into something uniquely his own—an organic sound that feels both classic and contemporary. The arrangement is clean and uncluttered, favoring emotion over embellishment. Every element, from the percussion’s light touch to the soft horn harmonies, works in service of the song’s core message: love is worth believing in, even when it’s tested.
Lyrically, “Keep My Faith in Love” reads like a personal mantra—a reflection on patience, resilience, and hope. Anton describes it as a celebration of “staying true—to love, to hope, and to the person who brings light into your life.” That spirit radiates through every note. The song’s narrative feels both intimate and universal, speaking to anyone who’s held onto love through difficult times.
Beyond the track itself, this release continues Anton’s ongoing evolution as an artist. Since his 2021 debut EP On a Bright Note, he has released nine EPs and over 45 original songs, each deepening his exploration of the intersection between classic jazz storytelling and modern soul expression. His ongoing project, “Soul in the Pocket,” showcases his ability to create music that feels timeless yet distinctly personal, and “Keep My Faith in Love” fits beautifully within that body of work.
