Song Review - Bumpin' Into You - Gary Quinn

Gary Quinn is one of the hardest working artists in UK Country, one of the nicest people in UK Country and has always been a great ambassador for the scene.  As an individual he has been very welcoming to both of us at Silverball Country for which we are very grateful!  It was therefore a pleasure to be asked to review his latest single, but as with ever review, we base what we write only on what we hear, and mostly from first impressions on listening.

 

We thought it might be interesting this time to give our two reviews separately so that you can see how each of us reacted

Rik listened to it first…

Gary Quinn is back with new music – and back with a bang! “Bumpin’ Into You opens with a short, sharp, in your face intro and then it is straight into Gary’s instantly recognisable voice, an accent that mixes Northern Ireland with Nashville

As with all his songs, this latest offering is very catchy, and very evocative. You can both hear and see the story he is telling – and his stories are ones we have all experienced, but Gary is able to put them into song!  For me, this story is rekindling a relationship, maybe we should, maybe we shouldn’t. but it’s a song of right here right now….. and right now we are in the bedroom!

A song about a longed for reunion could be quite schmaltzy – but this song really isn’t

Francesca hears the song the same way, but with Gary’s songs you can create your own version of the story – here’s how she heard it and saw it

It has sure been nice listening to the beautiful voice of Gary Quinn!  His voice is crisp and clear and creates clear imaginary in your head to support the lyrics; running his fingers down her spine, this is a romantic moment that you know will lead to more later that evening .Whilst the track contains excellent guitar playing and drums, after the 8 second intro, the focus it on Gary's voice, a voice truly worthy of male vocalist of the year. 

Those trips to Nashville have paid off, this latest track sits right up there with the music coming out of the home of country. 

The music is easy to listen to but captivates you at the same time, I can't wait to hear the next line. 

A beautiful song, and I can't wait to bump into Gary at this year's festivals.  For those that are not familiar with Mr Quinn, do yourself a favour and get acquainted with his music or even reacquainted. 

Gary can be found on Facebook, his website and running his fingers down a special ladies spine

Play this on a romantic night in with the lights low and the passion high...
