Dom Clark Trio – Over Again (2021)
While the Dom Clark Trio had us hooked to their funky sound and appreciating their folky turn with ‘Old Town Bells’, they continue to enthral with their musicality. With the final single before their debut album drops, ‘Over Again’ hits us with some retro soul vibes woven into funky grooves. With heartfelt lyrics, the band has listeners riding a love song packed with the core elements of their sound.
The trio brings a touch of Motown to their sound in a single that was written and recorded while normal life was on hold. While the lyrics can definitely be taken as a love song, they also touch on special times in your life that you wouldn’t change for anything. This layered approach makes the single more engaging for everyone while the music showcases the versatility and musicality of the band.
‘Over Again’ jangles to life with a delightfully retro vibe. The beats have you swaying to their rhythm while Clark’s trumpet brings more of that retro-soul vibe. You can hear the touch of Motown woven into the melody but this does not overshadow the funky tones of the band. There is a perfect merging of soul and funk in the music bringing the band’s core to light. You can’t help but feel happy as you listen to the track. The arrangement of the melody lifts your spirits and really puts a smile on your face.
The merging of tones is not only felt in the melody as it shines through Clark’s vocals as well. There is a groovy feeling to his performance that slides into a classic Motown feeling on the chorus. The chorus is really catchy and you will feel the urge to sing along with the band. The harmonising in the low levels creates depth to the track while swirling good vibes through your veins.
Dom Clark Trio shimmies through retro-soul tones with a base of funky grooves to fill you with the good vibes of ‘Over Again’. As you move to the groovy music, the vocals and lyrics fill you with the happiness of past good times. You can’t help but feel good as you listen to the track and want to sway or shake to the rhythm.
