David Goundry is set to captivate listeners with his latest single ‘Coming Right At You’. As the first taste of his much-anticipated album, the single promises to deliver a nostalgic yet fresh homage to the timeless sounds of the analogue era.
‘Coming Right At You’ exudes a rich, pop sensibility, with catchy hooks and a driving rhythm that nods to the golden age of rock ‘n’ roll. Featuring contributions from legendary session guitarist Hugh Burns, whose credits include performances alongside George Michael, Paul McCartney, and Gerry Rafferty, the track pulses with melodic energy and musical craftsmanship.
The song is a beautifully textured delight, brimming with the nostalgic charm that seems to float effortlessly throughout its composition. There’s a dreamy quality woven into the fabric of the track, calling to mind the evocative sounds of iconic artists like The Beatles, Pink Floyd and Paul Simon. These influences are subtly felt, lending the song a sense of timelessness while still allowing it to stand firmly in its own originality.
The melody itself is rich and deeply engaging, with a fluidity that feels both organic and meticulously crafted. The steady, driving guitar strumming serves as the song’s heartbeat, grounding the track while adding a rhythmic momentum that pushes the melody forward with ease. The guitar’s warmth and simplicity create the perfect backdrop, allowing the other elements of the song to shimmer in the foreground.
Layered vocals add further depth and texture, creating a harmonious and immersive listening experience. These vocal harmonies swirl around, adding a sense of expansiveness and airiness that complements the track’s floaty, 70s-inspired vibe. The interplay between the rich melody and vocals results in a piece that feels lush and full, while also maintaining a lightness that is captivating.
