Roy Andrews is a man with a bevy of talents ranging from music composition, songwriting, production, saxophone, and electronic wind instrument playing. He has played in different venues across the world, performing with both upcoming and established artists as he himself paved his own path to musical greatness, capturing the mind, body, and soul of his listeners with his enchanting compositions that always transport a listener to another realm that is bewitching and not likely easy to forget. The thing about good music is that it always finds its listeners and that is the case with his captivating releases that always find their audience right there wherever they are.
The gist of one of Roy Andrews’ latest releases “Songs Undesirable Vol. 1 (Don’t Run Away)” rests on those charmingly beautiful rhythmic guitars that drive that reggae essence forward as much as the tantalizingly beautiful sax and precise drums that blend intriguingly with all the other components for a rhythmically beautiful and melodiously consistent work of art that you can’t help but feel drawn to as you move with joyful abandon.
The track has that irresistible reggae vibe that bonds really well with the kind of direction Roy Andrews opts to take as he showcases another versatile side to his artistry, dipping his toes into a signature rock style that adds to the song’s depth.
Listening to this song, I felt the kind of vibe Bob Marley’s “Stir it Up” gave me when I first heard it. It is not like they are similar in any way but I felt a close feeling or attachment to the song as if it was something I had listened to before even when I hadn’t.
“Songs Undesirable Vol. 1 (Don’t Run Away)” is a masterclass in reggae-rock innovation with a bluesy touch, giving it a nostalgic familiarity, contributing to a modern yet timeless-feeling sound that you cannot help but feel deeply connected to.
