If you love Americana folk music, I know you’re going to dig “Tried it on Tuesday,” the latest single from Walyalup/Fremantle act Lloyd & The Leftovers. It’s got such a classic sound, I can understand why these guys have received rave reviews after playing Nungarin and the City of Fremantle Winter Festivals.
I was initially drawn to Lloyd’s twangy vocals, the lush harmonies of the backing singers, and that beautiful, rich, organic instrumentation. But after a few listens I really started to tap into the lyrics. Yes, they’re brilliant too. It’s an honest love song about a relationship with a creative collaborator and all the challenges that come with it.
I’m so excited to hear more from Lloyd & The Leftovers. This song has certainly whetted my appetite for whatever comes next.
