Garland Kelley is fast establishing himself as a conscious voice in the music industry, and his latest release Give It All Away, only cements this fact, showcasing his immense talent and allowing for a deeper connection between Garland and his growing fan base.
Opening with a bass-driven soundscape, Give It All Away demonstrates instrumental mastery as Garland Kelley delivers a moody and psychedelic energy, as he shares metaphorical prose with thought-provoking concepts – something that we can come to love and appreciate from the star.
Speaking on his artistry as a whole, Garland Kelley tells us, “I am a rock artist and music producer based in Nashville. My music is message-driven, often focusing on existential issues such as mortality and materialism. I am an avid outdoorsman and adventurer and this connection is often felt in my music.”
We learn that Give It All Away addresses materialism and overconsumption. The star takes us on an evocative journey with his prose and soundscape, to open our minds and expand consciousness within the collective.
Fans of artists such as The Black Keys, Led Zeppelin, Soundgarden, Incubus, Muse, Royal Blood, Red Hot Chili Peppers (especially for those who are fans of the song Road Trippin’!), and Queens Of The Stone Age will certainly be able to connect with Give It All Away, although there is no doubt that what Garland Kelley is unique to his own design. We were so overwhelmed by the meaning and chord progressions of the chorus, that we actually cried. That is testament to how powerful Garland’s creations truly are!
We love the emotionally adept guitar intricacies and the ethereal ebbs and flows of the piece, which create a luscious juxtaposition with the moodier elements of the composition. We have added Give It All Away to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we continue to stream Garland Kelley‘s exquisite discography!
