Moments Worth Listening For
The locked-in bass and guitar interplay that opens 'Got to Love Somebody', setting a relentless groove.
The sudden, soaring vocal harmonies on the bridge of 'Reach Your Peak' that feel like a physical lift.
The breezy, escapist atmosphere of 'Let’s Go on Vacation' where the percussion mimics a tropical pulse.
