Robert Jordanโs new single, โSong for Bob,โ from his upcoming album Vincent and Theo, is an engaging and exhilarating song.
โSong for Bobโ kicks things off with a full-on rock as the thumping drums, driving guitars, and soaring strings all come together to create a heavy, deep, vivid, and yearning soundscape. Then the drums give a hard pounding to make way for Jordanโs thick and rich voice to emerge singing.
As Jordan steps up to the mic, you can feel a touch of gravel that adds a whole lot of character. He turns that rockinโ instrumental up to eleven. With his delivery, they become funky, energetic and interesting. Thereโs a steadiness to his delivery that makes you want to lean in and listen. Meanwhile, soulful backing vocals by Boulder legend Rebecca Abraxas add a touch of sweetness to the mix.
Hereโs the thing: by the end of the first verse, youโll find yourself humming along. Youโll be singing along having memorized the lines like the back of your hand. This is a song that demands participation.
Speaking of Colorado, some big names helped bring โSong for Bobโ to life. The legendary Geoff Gray recorded the track at Far and Away Studios in Boulder.
โSong for Bobโ is a perfect example of what happens when a talented singer-songwriter meets a team of great music makers. Listen to the wholesome rock and roll experience of โSong for Bob.โ
