If we’re honest, One Direction’s exit from the music scene has left a little hole in many of our hearts. If you’re looking for another act that layers harmonies over easy-listening pop rock melodies, meet Darling Brando. These Aussie lads have just released a debut single “Beat Up Guitar” and it’s everything you could hope it to be.
“We are so stoked to have ‘Beat Up Guitar’ as our first single. We wanted our first release to be really true – to us as artists – and we love how it came out,” explained one-third of the band, Tom Jay Williams.
“The term ‘Beat Up Guitar’ is an analogy for finding something beautiful, in something that to everyone else, seems broken” added Alex Mather.
Vlado Saric continued, “Yeah, to us it’s a bit of an anthem about being yourself. It doesn’t matter what other people see, it’s about what you choose to see!”
I’ve got to admit, “Beat Up Guitar” has put me back in touch with my teenage self. I’m not even guilty about liking this one.
