Gary Dranow shares empowering and optimistic album title track, Never Give Up

Establishing the mood with strummed acoustic guitar and a dynamic guitar performance, Gary Dranow and The Magic Emotions open Never Give Up with an inspiring vocal performance from Klim Apalkov as he sings, “The road stretches for miles and miles, and there’s no end in sight, you know it will be forever a struggle, don’t shy away from the fight…”

The opus expands with intentional depth to take us on an empowering journey, at a time when we need it the most. There is no doubt that humanity is going through a crisis, and what Gary, Klim and company have to offer is uplifting, timeless and filled with poetic sentiment.

The guitar performances are simply incredible, with astral nuances guiding us and tapping into the oneness that flows through us all. The middle eight cements the message of the song and is followed by an out of this world guitar solo, something that we have truly come to connect with from Gary’s artistic catalogue.

The stripped down ebbs and flows of the track create drama and remind us of the core offering of Gary Dranow and The Manic Emotions, which is masterfully created songs that offer solace to many of us. The track is perfect for Hollywood synch deals, and it is no surprise that it is the title track for the album, as it truly encompasses the profound and intentional depth of Gary Dranow‘s artistry.

Gary tells us how the song is designed to offer “a poignant exploration of the human spirit’s resilience”. He adds, “It captures the urgency of perseverance amidst obstacles – a rallying cry for hope in the face of adversity.”

We have added Never Give Up to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we continue to stream Gary Dranow and The Manic Emotions‘ wider discography, and anticipate future releases from the band and Gary’s new project, Astralix.
