Billy Bibby & The Wry Smiles have been long time friends of Ralph's Life both here on the blog and on the Radio KC rotations so we were intrigued to hear about the new single Together? which strays from the usual path a tad; with no small degree of radio friendly aplomb we soon discovered.Who better to explain that than Billy himself:
"Together? is something I wanted to write so that it would push the boundaries of the Billy Bibby & The Wry Smiles sound but still maintaining the hooks that I personally always look for when writing a song. I don't personally like going into too much detail about the lyrics but hearing them for yourself you'd probably figure out that it's about a love triangle of sorts told from the perspective as the outsider of the three."
Billy went on: "I wanted to see how I could make the verse and chorus fit together but at the same time have them quite different in sound.
The verse seems quite happy and then the chorus comes in hard and to the point! Live, this song isn't one to be missed because before we even released it people have been starting mosh pits as the last chorus kicks in! And we all need a song like that, right?"
We'll be playing Together? by Billy Bibby & The Wry Smiles on the Radio KC Indie Show on March 18th so tune in on rkc.noip.me internet radio from 5-7pm GMT.
