It is beautiful to recognise independent artists and their talent come to life in the music industry, especially seeing the breakout star Bay Simpson with his upbeat new single ‘Summertime Classics‘.
Following on from his previous single ‘Animals‘, the rising star continues to create heartfelt and emotionally driven songs exploring themes of relationships, breakups and the experiences we face in life, making his lyrics and storytelling relatable to anyone who listens to his sensational music collection.
With a laidback yet still energetic electric guitar and booming drums which make you swing left to right throughout the emotional song, Bay passionately sings with his distinct and strong vocals, reflecting on nostalgic memories of a summer romance, thinking how this special relationship was a ‘summer classic’. It is a relatable song that tugs at the heartstrings, wishing you could turn back time and relive those magical moments before it all went wrong. Bay pours out all of his soul inside the energetic, indie rock track.
Fresh off his breakout run on NBC’s The Voice in February, Bay earned a chair turn from Adam Levine, who praised his performance, saying, “This dude is awesome. He’s going to be different than anybody on the show.” At just 20 years old, the Muscle Shoals native is quickly emerging as one of country and Southern rock’s most exciting new voices.
Since starting his music career, the singer-songwriter from Alabama has become one of many talented voices in the music industry. From the indie rock energy that makes you want to dance and relax while listening to the music to his heartfelt lyrics on experiences we can all somehow relate to, Bay knows how to get you into your feelings with his beautiful lyrics.
Before stepping onto the national stage, Bay had already earned a major songwriting cut with Kid Rock in March 2022, who recorded his song “Never Enough.” He also has a unique connection to music history; his mother’s grandfather’s aunt was Elvis Presley’s grandmother, making the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll a distant relative.
