Nashville-based pop act Kev Kelly explores the over-used “partners in crime” outlook within relationships on latest single “Faster,” a soft offering led by his gentle vocals and an ethereal soundscape built on flowing guitars. With a seemingly uplifting vibe, the track actually delves into Kelly’s frustration about couples who call each other “partners in crime,” in meaningless situations.
Tinged with cynicism as he assumes that most lovers would turn on each other when real trouble hurtles toward them, the track is still remains startlingly positive with cheeky lyricism juxtaposed against lush, feel-good pop sonics. Accompanied by a music video, Kelly brings the theme of the track alive, as he takes us through a journey filled with equal amounts of vulnerability and humor.
Breaking into music only two years ago in 2020, with the release of his debut EP Saint KDK V, Kelly quickly built a reputation for his ability to take the most personal experiences and craft them into catchy songs that strike a chord with anyone listening. “Faster,” taken from his forthcoming two-part EP, This Might Escalate… And Then Collapse, is not only a track that we’d reach to replay on loop, it’s also a snippet of the tale set to unfold in his EP, which will tell the story of a night out.
Building anticipation for this intriguing story, this latest track also proves that Kelly is accelerating his musical journey to become someone memorable in the pop music scene.
