Jerry Jean ft Elia Esparza – Pacific Coast (2022)
With his singles ‘Marathon’ and ‘September Sky’, Jerry Jean showed us that he has a lot to offer, as he moved from vibrating celebrations to soulful nostalgia. He is now teaming up with Elia Esparza for the heartfelt duet ‘Pacific Coast’, which looks at partnership through the good times and the bad. Inspired by his relationship with his wife and the restorative beauty of the Pacific coast, the single layers strings with tender vocals.
After writing the single, Jean went on a search for a female vocalist who complements his tone, and found Esparza. After connecting on Instagram, he knew her soulful vocals were the perfect match. With a touch of classical sounds added to the contemporary soul flows of the vocals, they bring a stunning beauty to our ears.
The acoustic tones that fill the opening of ‘Pacific Coast’ fill your mind with the beauty of the coast. You can feel the cool sand of the beach under your feet while birds soar and swoop above you. The rejuvenating energy of the ocean has been packed into the melody, allowing it to lift troubles from your senses, while filling you with a deep affection. The guitars and strings come together wonderfully to create the breeze of ocean air. It is a really tender melody that you can sink into as the relaxing vibes take over your soul. There is a gentle rise and fall to the melody that mimics the lapping of ocean waves, while making you want to find a loved one and just spend some time with them. The guitar riff later in the track brings a slight touch of country to the soundscape that adds a new texture to the sound.
While the melody sets the scene of the single, it is the vocals that are the real stars of the single. Jean’s vocals are the first to enter as he brings the understanding that life is not always easy and there are going to be hard times. This moves to the chorus that is packed with affection and the knowledge that the relationship will last through the good and bad. After the chorus, Esparza’s soulful vocals slide into the track with a light country edge. Her performance looks at the future of the relationship and how you need to work to make it last. As their vocals join forces, they perfectly blend together in a delicate and beautiful dance. This is a really heartwarming single that is packed with wonderful emotions.
Using heartfelt lyrics, beautiful vocal performance and touching melodics, Jerry Jean and Elia Esparza bring the resilience of love to our ears in ‘Pacific Coast’. The melody is tender as it brings the restorative and rejuvenating touch of the ocean to our ears. Walking down the beach of sound, Jean and Esparza’s vocals are a treat for the ears and a soothing balm for the soul.
