Alt-pop sibling trio Saint Nomad drops summery single “Better With You,” a layered combination of pop, rock, and electronic music with an escapist vibe. With a strong soundscape led by cheerful reggae rhythms, dub influences and electro-tinged hazy vocals, the track transports us into the mood of a relaxing beach vacation in its tropical tones.
Inspired by the beauty of the Florida Gulf beaches and their wives, was written by the three siblings Nikita, Ruslan, and Yan Odnoralov, “Better With You,” with the hopes of infusing the warmth of summer into everyone’s lives. Imagining a laid-back getaway that offers us a short reprieve from the stresses of mundanity, the brothers who grew up on the road capture the liberation of living freely in the feel-good production that get feet tapping and heads bopping.
Produced by Ruslan, the track offers a lush instrumental arrangement that falls back on the band’s signature blend of earthy, organic instruments and distorted electronic sonics with touches of groovy dance-pop.
Born in Russia and raised in America, the musical trio of brothers have who have built up a reputation for genre-hopping melodies since their 2018 debut album Memento Mori, have continued to hone their artistry for a more nuanced sound with larger-than-life, cinematic influences.
