‘SIMPATICO’ showcases Kelly’s dynamic brand of indie rock in all its glory. With his notoriously catchy melodies in tow, Kelly presents a swaggered new single laced in tight grooves and rich instrumentation. The track glides upon intricate guitar lines and punchy drums that create a vibrant foundation for Kelly’s expressive vocals to bounce off. His fast delivery of the lyrics creates a sense of suspense and intrigue and complements the undertones within the lyrics perfectly, “been robbed by omnipotent’s, sullied by rings of power in the midst of enlightenment. Why do new things frighten us”. Boasting tight production and expressive musicianship ‘SIMPATICO’ is a proper bop to indulge in.
