With a sparkling melody, the single offers a fresh start and the vibrant energy that we all need right now.

‘Overcome’ shimmers with a light twinkle of sound that brings a warmth to your skin. The deep beat is a wonderful counter to the higher notes that threaten to float away on the glistening winds of the melody. The music is packed with the last warm days of summer that fills you with some seriously good vibes. The vibrations of the guitars and synths come together perfectly for a tangle of sound that you can’t stop listening to. The energy of the melody slowly fills you and lifts your spirits like the warmth of the sun after a cold day.

The vocal enter like a gentle breeze that brings a whisper of cool air on a hot day. While the vocals are light, the lyrics have a more sombre message. They delve into the end of a friendship and the understanding that trying to stay friends is not good for either person. While there is a sadness to the lyrics, the bolstering melody and movement of the vocals fill you with something good. The bright feelings infused into both the vocals and music lets you know that the future will be better and you will get over the end of the friendship.

Night Talks fills you with warmth while tempering the end of a friendship with the bright energy in ‘Overcome’. The melody shimmers and sparkles to life before filling you with the good vibes of the track. While the lyrics delve into the loss of a friendship, the vocals bolster your spirits and have you excited for the future.
