ROSSA – TALK TO ME
SINGLE REVIEW
Intriguing and powerful lyricism meets grinding rock in Talk to Me, the latest release from Melbourne artist Rossa. With radio from Australia and abroad already getting behind this hot new track, 2019 by all accounts, will no doubt be a big year for Rossa’s music.
What is evident in Talk to Me is that it is both robust lyrically as it is instrumentally, with a sound that enters the domain of hard edge rock, while bringing melodies fit for the top 40 listener.
From the opening verse of Talk to Me, Rossa poetically lights the torch with an intimate vocal delivery that is direct and sincere, depicting the story of a communication breakdown within a relationship. However, communication through music seems second nature to Rossa as he lays it all out with perfect timing and heart in this hard-hitting arrangement.
The combination of brute force and vulnerability in Rossa’s voice is incredibly dynamic, a quality he may well have developed through years of experience playing the live rock scene in Melbourne and in his hometown of Belturbet, Ireland.
As a well-seasoned guitar gun of the live rock circuit, Rossa leaves no stone unturned in his quest for sound and performance, dropping fire burning riffs on every turn and a hook-laden solo that leaves us hanging on every note.
Overall this is an outstanding release from an exciting new artist and deserves its place among its alt-rock counterparts. Discover Talk to Me in the video below and request it on your local radio station.
