Alaska based songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Medium Build shared his latest piece of work, single titled “comeback.” The new track is a fusion of indie, and pop with spoken-words vocals that add modern touch to overall alternative vibe.
As the press release notes, “comeonback” is a tender yet sparse song, showcasing an artist who’s insight and approach to songwriting has become more established during the pandemic. Sonically, the track is intimate but sung vehemently. With the lyrics, “What kind of friend would I be if I didn’t take you back? / I fucked shit up too, I’m reminded of that,” “comeonback” reflects a Venn diagram of passion and reality.
Medium Build shares this of his new single: “‘comeonback’ is about friendship, forgiveness and checking our blind spots. I’ve been writing a bunch of love songs to friends and this one is the intersection of ‘I fucked up’ and ‘they fucked up.’ Like how do we proceed when we realize that neither of us are perfect? I used to wanna be perfect in every relationship. I’m learning how to be myself but not give up. Flawed but present.”
By releasing such emotional and personal single, Medium Build exposes himself as an extremely vulnerable artist who is ready to share his deepest thoughts and struggles. Medium Build sets himself apart from his peers with his authentic and unique style of combining genres, and inspiration coming out from his personal experiences.
