(November 28, 2022) The yacht rock revivalists of Young Gun Silver Fox made up of Mamas Gun frontman Andy Platts and producer/multi-instrumentalist Shawn Lee are adding more heat to their flames, all thanks to their latest soul-savin’ expedition.
On “Rolling Back,” the latest single from their fourth LP Ticket to Shangri-La, the dynamic duo pump out breezy Shalamar-tinged R&B vibes atop Doobie Brothers soul (think “What a Fool Believes” and the Whispers’ “And the Beat Goes On” merging together). It’s a pretty groovy affair, especially when Platts delivers his superiorly stacked backing vocals upon the earworm of the chorus, while singing “there you go, cruising the sun kissed open roads/Skipping the oceans like a stone/But sooner or later you’ll come rolling back to me.”
Let us know if you’re “rolling back” to the sweet funk of this track.
