Great songwriting always resounds, regardless of the setting or recording style. In this case, the authenticity of the studio capture seems to aptly reinforce the realism and appeal of the song. Jumbo Chords deliver an indie-rock classic, for Dennis Wilson.
Somewhat carefully intertwining a country-rock instrumental with a marching rhythm and dreamy layers of surf-rock guitar, the song goes on to utilise a classic UK vocal thread – short lines and a distinct pair of vocals, reflecting in a catchy and satisfying fashion, upon ideas that both intrigue and feel original.
The track rolls along with confidence, even weaving in a touch of grunge influence just subtly, and in short – Dennis Wilson is an impressive and engaging introduction to all things Jumbo Chords. Great riffs, great harmonies, an organic beating heart and a clear sense of story and intention. Turn this one up loud.
