Other than those people who thrive in the cold weather, I think we can agree there is something special about summer, and Central Coast artist Jamie Lindsay is counting the moments in his new single, ‘Bring On The Summertime’.
Other than wishing winter away, a riff from guitarist mate Jake Tuffin (Duncan Toombs, Casey Barnes) prompted Jamie’s new single.
“Every now and then he sends me guitar riffs in a Dropbox folder we have,” Jamie said. “Sometimes when I’m looking for an idea, I have a listen to what Jake has put in the folder and this riff caught me. I thought, ‘it’s catchy, I would love to write something to that’ and then wondered how it made me feel. It made me feel really good, because it’s vibey and happy and that’s when I thought about what else made me feel really good – summer and the weather.”
The track seems self-explanatory with the Central Coast artist addressing his thoughts on winter and how he’s longing for summer, but there’s more to this song than meets the eye.
“Although this song is about wanting summer back, there’s a deeper meaning here, because I’m also talking about the two years we’ve just had and about the good time we had about before COVID,” Jamie said.
“Summertime is getting back to the parties and out of lockdown is about getting back to those good times before we were all locked down and miserable.”
This song is sure to warm your winter days as we move closer to warm days ahead. Jamie recorded and produced this track, which was mixed by Billy Decker in the US.
