New Pop Ballad from Greg Mendez

I’ve really been enjoying short pop songs over the last years, which I suppose I owe to the likes of Tony Molina. But, today, I’m turning over towards the work of Greg Mendez, who just released this really great ditty I can’t stop listening to at the moment. Beginning ever-so-gently with this careful strum and airy vocal, crafting an immediate intimacy that sucks you into the song. Light arrangements begin to creep in from the distance, drums adding some nice textural tension; it all culminates in this nice energetic burst with a sparkling guitar that draws the song to a close. This track appears on the forthcoming Cherry Hell LP, which drops on February 28th via Forged Artifacts/Devil Town Tapes.
