Goodnight Suzie is an indie/pop band featuring wife and husband team Suzie and Ben Bradford. And in that, a versatile pop banner that extends from uptempo pop singalongs to immersive emotional ballads. They do it all and they do it well. In their latest track, ‘Free’ Goodnight Suzie mesh histrionic orchestras with fluent sopranos to create a ballad of freedom. The track is a truly beautiful sonic production that presents like musical theater. Suzie not only sings but performs. And Ben weaves in with intuitive instrumental imprints and inflections. Listen Now!
The track is led in by ribbons of classical violins, launching and lingering in sentiment. Suzie’s vocals are measured and effortless as she paves the road to being free : ‘walk before you run, wake before you woke, don’t beat the punchline to all the jokes but do it because the truth will come out eventually’. The soundscape is almost entirely composed with the silken textures of violin. And touched by the mellow blues of the vocals, they are revived constantly to shape the weary world while holding space for freedom.
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
