Xan Palma has released the most anthemic ode to long-distance lovebirds with her latest single, “Kiss Me Through the Phone.”
The song’s production, recorded at Southside Sounds studio in Nashville, TN, under the expert hands of Noah Bellamy and Preston Cochran, creates a dynamic backdrop for Xan’s emotive performance.
Catchy drums mirror the frustration and agony of distance and harmonizing guitar tunes drive the rhythm. Meanwhile, Xan’s rich, resonant vocals soar with vibrato and fullness, conveying the depth of her emotions. In Xan Palma, you can hear the traces of vocal greats like Sam Cooke, Sarah Vaughan, Billie Holiday, Janis Joplin, and Amy Winehouse. They further enrich the texture and depth of her performance.
“Kiss Me Through the Phone” resonates with authenticity, drawing from Xan’s own experience of navigating her boyfriend’s six-month deployment. Her lyrics reflect the bittersweet reality of longing for physical intimacy while maintaining a deep connection across miles. Instead of dwelling on the sadness of being apart, “Kiss Me Through the Phone” shows how distance, though challenging, can ultimately fortify the bond between two people and show them how much they care about each other.
With Noah Bellamy’s production skills and contributions from Herschel VanDyke on drums, the musical collaboration enhances the song’s emotional resonance. Xan Palma’s music offers solace and inspiration to those enduring long-distance relationships.
So listen to “Kiss Me Through the Phone” by Xan Palma on Spotify and remind yourself that love knows no bounds and can thrive even across miles.
