Aaby’s authenticity is refreshing, his intelligence shines brightly in the writing, alongside his realness and openness as a citizen of an often cold and uncaring world.
Blending the catchy qualities of pop with an emo-rap vocal outpouring, a clean mix and a colourful bounce of a soundscape.
Heavy and engaging, quickly prompting a volume increase, and out-rightly maintaining the essence of this concept that is Move Your Body – a track that’s difficult to ignore as it effortlessly commands you to shift gears.
3Alphas bring back the essence of RnB to the contemporary music scene. Their soulful vocals intertwine and meander through modern trap rhythms and choir-like layers of warmth.
“I always picture my characters in an American town, bar, coffee house, highway. It kind of frees my imagination up a bit more plus place names in America can be cool. My song The Last Train from Baltimore just would not be the same if I had called it The Last Train from Grimsby or Macclesfield.”
