Cozy Instrumental Folk Background Music
Audiosocket's cozy background music collection is an all-instrumental set of acoustic folk and singer-songwriter cues for filmmakers and brands needing an intimate, organic, heartfelt bed under picture. Acoustic guitars lead nearly every track, layered with electric guitar, keys, percussion, strings and mallets, as on Terrains' Light Of The Morning (Instrumental) and Devin Sinha's Carry Me (inst). The warm, happy, inspiring tone suits professional-services films, video editorials, couples and romance pieces and arts-and-crafts content.

About this Playlist
Every track in this cozy background music collection is instrumental. Many are the instrumental versions of singer-songwriter and folk songs, which is why titles such as Joe Hedges' Bloom (Instrumental), Nicole Reynolds' Wonderin (Remastered Instrumental) and Devin Sinha's Carry Me (inst) carry that label. The result is warm acoustic music with the shape of a song but no lyrics competing with your voiceover or dialogue.
Acoustic guitar is on nearly every track, and it is usually paired with electric guitar, keyboards and percussion. Strings appear on a smaller group of cues, while mallets and clap-and-stomp accents add texture on a few. The moods are overwhelmingly happy, loving and inspiring, with calm and quirky cues rounding it out, so the collection reads as warm and hopeful rather than melancholy.
This collection is the instrumental, warm-hearted slice of indie folk and singer-songwriter music, with reference points in Bon Iver, Fleet Foxes and Sufjan Stevens plus a handful of cinematic folk and film-tv cues. Where a broad indie folk search returns lyric-driven songs across every mood, these tracks are chosen for one production job: an intimate, slightly imperfect acoustic bed for professional-services films and video editorials.
The tier depends on who the finished video is for. Individual covers personal projects, Indie Film covers independent filmmakers, and Small Business or Large Business cover brand and corporate work sized to the company. Every track here is cleared for commercial use, including client work and ads, under the tier purchased, and each license remains perpetual for that specific finished video.
Professional-services films and video editorials dominate the tags, followed by stories about couples, being in love, happiness and joy, with a few cues tagged for arts and crafts and family adventure. Tracks average around three minutes twenty seconds, so a single cue can carry a full brand story or be trimmed to a short testimonial. Terrains' Light Of The Morning (Instrumental) is a good starting point.
