Performative flair and an unrivaled sense of groove lay down the foundations for the brand new catchy and intriguing single from Stuart Pearson.
Featuring surf-rock layers of organic guitars, bass and drums, as well as a snappy stop-start arrangement that’s naturally in tune with the progressing melody, The Devil Whammy manages to feel like both a timeless hit and a quirky underground alternative that’s instantly characterful.
The latest release from the upcoming album American Gothic, The Devil Whammy employs a two-chord loop for the most part, with distinctive vocals on the front line relaying a story of equal parts heartbreak and humor. The result is a Rocky Horror Show degree of energy and theatrics, amidst a likable overall vibe that quickly gets the listener keen to crank up the volume.
Always unexpected, always worth delving into – the music of Stuart Pearson continues to keep things original and nostalgic all at once. I look forward to hearing the new album in full.
