Made up of singer-songwriter Gary Maccagnone and music composer Alex Goroshko, Big Sexy is an indie band whose music is more than just a collection of tracks; it’s an immersive experience that delves deep into the core of human emotions. The music here is a testament to the power of music as an expression of the human condition, capturing the essence of love, heartbreak, and everything in between. The band’s motivation for music comes from knowing how it brings people together. There’s memories in music—it is the soundtrack to our lives, it’s nostalgic as we age, and the goal for Big Sexy is to make the listener feel heard by exploring themes that are relatable.
The track “Burning” is a single off of Big Sexy’s “River of Shame” album. This jam speaks highly of the band’s knack for telling stories through music, as the lyrics capture a man with a heavy heart, grappling with the memories of his ex-lover with lyrics like “you keep running on my mind” encapsulating the essence of memories that are extremely hard to let go.
A tantalizing concoction of the driving solos, punchy drum work, and exquisite bass licks provide the ideal backdrop for the warm, inviting, and emotive lead vocals as Gary pours all of his heart and soul in the track, with a big radio hook that will stay with you even after the track is long gone.
There is catchiness, poignancy, and relatability all in the same track, which makes it a must-listen for anyone who appreciates roots and rock music to tell relatable stories in an emotional way.
With over 12K Spotify streams, “Burning” is a must-have masterpiece with replay value and one that deserves its place in any rock playlist.
