Let's start with a warning. This song is radically different from anything you've heard on IMC so far. I discovered this song when a heavy rain was falling on my roof window, just above me, when Jenny was singing "I'm staring at the sun". Quite funny, eh?
Let's go to London to meet 3Times7. With years of experience performing and jamming together, the band has honed their talents and now has the opportunity to perform all over the world. Their particularity is the soulful female vocals of Jenny Lawrence.
The band has created an upbeat and lively track in "Wait!", which boasts rich and complex four-part harmonies thanks to their collaboration with Hayley Ross and Steve Bright of the band Futurism. The addition of drums and percussion played by the extremely skilled Ian Wilson adds a dynamic and full sound to the track.
While "Wait!" departs from the traditional blues and jazz style that these guys are known for, it still maintains the band's signature energy and musicianship, while incorporating a more pop-influenced sound that is still easily recognizable as a 3Times7 original. This track is perfect for those who need a boost of energy, it's sure to lift your spirits with its upbeat and catchy melodies.
Overall, it's a well-crafted and enjoyable song that showcases the band's talents and versatility. It's a must-listen for fans of soulful blues and pop music, and it's a perfect example of how 3Times7 is able to blend different genres and create something unique and exciting. Just be careful: the melody is highly addictive and you'll have it running in your mind for hours. Oops. Days. Or even more.
