The Chris Commerford Band – Better (2021)
The Chris Commerford Band is here to heal your soul with their restorative and soulful single ‘Better’. This is done through the creation of a relaxing space where you can appreciate the moment and feel the soothing wash of understanding and connections. If you need a soothing and restorative song that fills you with natural energy, you have come to the right place.
This restive single comes from Chris Commerford (vocals, guitar), Lennie Farchione (guitar, backing vocals), Tearnu Graham (bass, backing vocals), Harry Monaghan (drums, percussion) and Sebastian Farchione (saxophone, keys). Coming off a stellar 2019, the band has taken to live streams to stay connected with fans during the pandemic. As they prepared for hitting the stages again, they tapped into their raw edges for their last single before easing everyone with this one.
‘Better’ has you relaxing from the first groovy tones. There is a smooth progressive pull in the opening that has you relaxing for the guitar to pick you up and send you flying. The easy melody is a joy to listen to as it fills you with good and relaxing vibes. There is a peaceful vibe to the music that has you floating on a river of restorative waves. If you are feeling a little frayed around the edges, the melody will knit you back together. The guitar riffs are wonderful as they soar through the soundscape and make you want to sit back and let them wash over you.
Commerford’s vocals enhance the soothing vibes of the music with his soft tenor. His voice is a wonderful warmth that wraps around you and calms your soul. The energy of his performance is interesting as the lyrics have a searching feeling to them while his vocals have a more grounded relaxing vibe. On the chorus, he gently reaches out to feel better while filling you with the sense that you can be better regardless of the situation you are in.
The Chris Commerford Band has you relaxing into their peaceful soundscape while filling you with strength in ‘Better’. The easiness of the melody has you floating on the river of good vibes. Commerford’s vocals continue this feeling while filling you with naturally peaceful energy.
