Man after all the non-stop craziness of this past week this is just what I needed. One of the best songwriters in the "Pop Punk Bubble" Ricky Rochelle is dropping what will be the first in a series of new digital singles this Friday. They are gonna be available on his newly formed "Rochelle Records" but for now you can get all his previous releases at this site - https://rickyrochelle.storenvy.com/
So single number one is called "Imagine Being Eric" and I was kinda hoping it would be about Eric Trump but no it's about a lovable loner who lives with his cats. This sees another progression in Ricky's ever evolving sound. It takes us back to the days when Wreckless Eric, Elvis Costello and XTC were dropping amazing 45's weekly. As a product of the 80's I grew up listening to this kind of music so I'm 100% on board with this direction.
It's a quirky combination of intertwined guitar & keyboard melody with Ricky's beautiful vocal tone. I'm sorry my friend but if it was 1980 you'd be a Pop Star, all over UK & European TV. But I thank you for making music that needs to be heard today. All you have to do is look at our new President to see where being angry all the time gets you. All alone at 4 in the morning banging out tweets.
Here's the brand new Ricky Rochelle single "Imagine Being Eric". LISTEN! ENJOY!
