The high-octane energy of his performance is infused directly into your veins through his performance and you really wouldn’t want it any other way.

While the vocals pull you into a bar and the meeting of the track, the melody opens with a light piano line. This is a delicate touch that is slowly overtaken by a more playful and energetic movement. As the guitars enter, they bring the bright energy of freedom and impulsiveness to the soundscape. There is something woven into the guitar lines that pump you up and make you want to run into something fun. The movement of the melody perfectly cradles the vocals and throws them into the blissful happiness of their delivery.
