Give Your Spirits A Lift With Don’t Let It Get You Down From Toronto’s Eric and The Soo

Eric And The Soo
Don’t Let It Get You Down
Eastside Confectionary Records

Indie rock and folk blues band Eric And The Soo have just released Phoenix. Their latest album showcases a longlist of popular singles and unheard originals. For over ten years the band, headed by Eric Brombacher, have offered a cool and cosy yet upbeat and memorable formidability that gets them noticed on an international scale. Their hard work and focus have paid off tremendously, a headline act or a slot filler that keeps the place going, Eric And The Soo consistently keep the energy positive. Taken from the new album, Don’t Let It Get You Down reflects a message we need to keep audible as often as we can. Enjoy the whole album or just take a dose of confidence with the feature track, it’s your call.

A roll of the snare bursts into groove as the guitar slides in with a bubbly, blues-based melodic progression. Eric hits the mic as pianos lean in with funky jazz motifs and slender additions of melody. The lyrics bump along with a solid acoustic guitar that marches along with the folk-inspired drumming. Uplifting and thoughtful, a dialectic of sensation pulls us in and expands the mind with multifaceted lyrics involving all kinds of human emotions. The band launch into a section of phenomenal playing, a sense of jive and jam hits the song as everyone gets to playfully create their own chapter. The song is full of inventiveness and manages to stay just predictable enough to become embedded in the mind.
