Sevens unveils his latest single 'Nearness of You', a mesmerizing exploration of love and longing. Inspired by the profound feeling of closeness, Sevens crafts a romantic yet bittersweet melody that captivates listeners.
“I love the closeness, of being surrounded and submerged by a lover, so I wanted to write a tactile song about it”, the singer explains. “A song that travels through my dreams. Gentle, not overly sweet. Bittersweet, rather.”
The guitar takes the lead, paired with understated but powerful vocals and a sultry Wurlitzer. 'Nearness of You' feels like a warm summer breeze.
Sevens continues:
“The song is built on the same tempo as Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game," one of the most romantic songs ever written. The rhythm section has a nice push-and-pull feel, making you want to roll down the windows and just cruise.”
'Nearness of You' showcases Sevens’ indie-soul magic through stunning vocals and exceptional songwriting. This second single on Unday Records, just like its predecessor ‘Upstate’, is part of a new cycle of songs that are crystallizing into his debut album.
‘Nearness of You’ is now available on all streaming platforms.
