Andrew Cushin is back with a new catchy anthem, “A Song For You.” The up-and-coming singer-songwriter gifts us a love song that is raw, beautifully unfiltered, and transcendent of time. The latest of these is ahead of the release of his second album, “Love Is For Everyone,” which will be out by May 2nd via LAB Records, and if this is anything to go off, Cushin is building something special.
At heart, “A Song For You” is a personal, touching tribute that could have been penned at any time. Cushin sprinkles rock ‘n’ roll spirit into the track, mixing tender lyricism with propulsive acoustic guitars that crackle with intent. The folk-pop heart of the song is made to resonate further with the help of melancholic violins that give a bittersweet poignancy that sticks with you long.
Lyrically, Cushin makes it simple but profoundly poignant, with raw emotions on the table. That’s what makes “A Song For You” so potent. It’s one that everyone can identify with, the sort of song meant for anyone who has ever loved and yearned, encapsulating the beauty and the ache of devotion.
The accompanying official video pushes the song’s textural fullness even further, illuminating its sentiment in vibrant visuals. There’s unexplainable sorcery in the straightforwardness of it all, no complicated narrative proposition, just the music doing its job, making you feel something. Each ensuing release shows Andrew Cushin carving his space in the folk-rock landscape, finding the balance between the warmth of classic songwriting and a modern edge.
