(October 7, 2021) Whether she is singing with guiltypleasures, doing duets with Vic Frierson or up front as lead artist on her own project, Mycah Chevalier has always found a welcome audience among those who visit SoulTracks. A big reason for that is that Chevalier has a voice that sophisticated, seductive and intimate.
It’s been a while since Chevalier released something new, but fortunately that wait ends with her the release of the breezy mid-tempo tune “I Can See Through You.” The song that Chevalier co-wrote finds the vocalist working in her comfort zone as a renderer of the romantic ballad. Chevalier adopts a sensually conversational vibe, as she seductively implores a flame who has returned to town to drop the pretense of distance and acknowledge that they should reunite.
“I Can See Through You” is a song that finds Chevalier embracing good, old-fashioned romance. Producers ECE3 and Dawoud Said perfectly match that song’s attitude with analog production values. The backing vocals that feature Zach Celinder, a multi-instrumentalist from Copenhagen, are lush and provide a tight, harmonic contrast to the Chevalier’s emotive vocals. Celinder’s work on the chromatic harmonica gives the tune the feel of something that Stevie Wonder might have written back in the day.
