Jean Orange hails from Maryville, Tennessee, and he is an up-and-coming singer/songwriter, producer, and vocalist whose recent single ‘*SOMETIMES’ caught the attention of the whole team! Inspired by an old Alex G tune that was never released, ‘*SOMETIMES’ is a proudly “audibly bedroom-recorded” song that came together in less than two hours. With a hazy acoustic guitar and an off-kilter melancholy, the track gives off an early Elliott Smith type of vibe, at least to me. It’s deeply personal and emotional and feels more like a personal invitation from the musician himself than just another tune.
What I love about ‘*SOMETIMES’ is how Orange manages to convey a sense of vulnerability without sacrificing any of the song’s raw power. The production is minimal, allowing the lyrics and the melody to take centre stage. The guitar work is simple but effective, with a dreamy, almost otherworldly quality that perfectly complements Orange’s vocals.
‘*SOMETIMES’ is a stunning showcase of Jean Orange’s talent as a musician and songwriter. It’s a song that manages to be both intimate and universal, speaking to anyone who has ever struggled with addiction or found themselves searching for meaning in difficult times. It’s no wonder that it’s gaining attention from music fans and critics alike!
