There’s something unique about Mickey Newball. You see, his vocals are incredibly soothing and nostalgic, able to capture the listeners’ attention from the first note. What he has in store for them is a slice of dreamy, lo-fi goo, built on vintage tones and charming elegant grooves. ‘Limbo’ is the strongest evidence of that. In a way, it’s like floating in space: try closing your eyes, letting yourself cull by the majestic sonic character of Newball’s artistry.
Quite a hypnotising experience – trust us, we are called Mesmerized after all! Hailing from Portland, Newball shares a constant connection with the past, delving into the great American songwriting tradition. He does so with a keen eye to the future, giving sounds and formulas an edgy and shiny new identity.
‘Limbo’ is part of Mickey’s new album, ‘Genie Plus Organ’, a self-produced effort by the American creative. Speaking about the inspiration behind the single, Newball explains: “Inspired by a candid conversation with a former partner, it explores the emotional liminality that often engulfs relationships. This remark became the catalyst for a heartfelt song that delves into the uncertainties and complexities of love and commitment.”
