When approaching Jacob McCurdy, one must be ready to embrace his relatable lyricism, often balanced over breakup melancholy and poignant introspection. The talented singer and songwriter first hit the airwaves in 2020, mesmerising listeners worldwide with his soothing, yet intense style, the perfect accompaniment to our complex and nuanced reality. After an artistic hiatus that took the best part of two years, McCurdy is now back with what feels like a confirmation of his creative flair and a glimpse of a new beginning, perhaps lighting the mood towards hopeful themes.
A heart-shaking ode to falling in love with someone who truly connects with us, ‘Feels Like Home,’ was written during the pandemic, when McCurdy – tired of writing sad songs – wanted to create something that would spread warmth and love during a time of uncertainty. Together with Alex Calabrese and Phil Holub, Jacob penned the track with a positive resolution. The result is a friendly and soulful gem that effortlessly blends together rock and Americana elements into a more complete and genre-less sonic concoction.
