This brotha retched down in there and channeled his inner Stevie Wonder on this track here!! I have this song playing on repeat on Spotify right now!!!
This gem describes himself as a hippie with soul... and no matter how long I've listened to him or how many times I play his work, it's such a rawness in his soul that beautifully travels across the sound waves💚 Thanks Allen
My favorite song off the album. I particularly love the breakdown at the end where he sings " As long as I stay comfortable." Allen is such a phenomenal talent with a soulful voice.
On my birthday I went to an OAR concert just because he was the special guest. His performance was the most amazing thing I have ever experienced. Because I was carrying a sign and knew all the words, after word he gave me his signed pick, setlist, drumsticks and towel. I'm so IN LOOOOOOOVE
Moni Smith Being blessed with a naturally appealing voice is a wonderful blessing, but don't discredit the insane amount of practice and work it takes to reach his level.
