I don’t generally read PR e-mails. It’s not that I’ve got anything against PR companies or bands with PR companies, I just want T-Sides to grow more organically, as they say in the marketing biz. But the Boys and Girls Club caught me on a lucky morning, and I’m sure glad they did.
The Boys and Girls Club: “Summer In The City” (download)
“Summer in the City” is the right kind of electro pop for a lazy late summer. It’s got a solid beat that’s not quite fast enough for dancing, but great for waking up in the morning or walking down the street. The vocals are a soft and tongue-heavy purr, building a picture of the typical summer romance – afternoons spent at home in bed, the kind of commitment that needs no declaration of its loyalty beyond frequent time spent together.
It’s a gracious anthem for those of us wanting to make the most of these last hopeful summer nights.

Not a bad song, but that “doorbell” sound at the end of each measure kind of throws me off. It’s like I’m grooving along to the song, and then, “Ding dong,” I’m ready to get out of my chair and answer the door.

Some might call it stubborn, some might call it foolish, some might call it a plain ol’ jerk move – we call it the T-Sides way. There are always exceptions, however, so welcome to a new feature for said exceptions: In The Inbox. […]

Hi Taylor,
I used your review to create a youtube video for fans of this song to listen to while. Your mp3 link didn’t work so I purchased it on iTunes.
Love from Gold Coast, Australia.
