'BACK TO YOU' EXCLUSIVE

Ty Portrait _3 4x5 - IMG_2075-Edit.jpg

Ty Curtis' "Back to You" is a back porch boogie driven by acoustic guitar fingerpicking and with Steve Kerin adding a touch of Louisiana piano and LLoyd Jones contributing twangy telecaster tones. The song's melodies and lyrics, as well as the harmonica skills of Hank Shreve, create a memorable atmosphere. The blend of acoustic guitar, piano, and telecaster, along with Shreve's harmonica, produces a rootsy down home blues sound 

 The recording process for this single was captured by a professional film crew, offering a unique behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the music. 

As Curtis remembers it, the band just didn't want to stop playing "Back to You" - we were having too much fun. The song's infectious energy and joy are palpable, and it's easy to imagine the band losing themselves in the music. The song will have two different versions a short and long.

The 1960s Danelectro guitar Lloyd used above has an acoustic quality and mellow yet cutting tone that lent itself perfectly to the song's style, and Jones' skilled playing brought the vintage guitar to life. Lloyd's eyes lit up when he spotted the Rickenbacker guitar famously the style of guitar is used by Tom Petty & The Heart Breakers among others. 

The footage showcases Ty's creative approach to making music, as he works with the rest of the band and the recording team to bring the song to life.

The resulting track is a powerful and emotive blend of blues and roots music, featuring Ty's skilled guitar playing and the soulful melodies of Shreve's harmonica. 

It's clear that Kerin is a seasoned performer, as his work on the keys is soaked in authenticity. He brings a raw, live energy to the track.

It's clear that "Back to You" was right up Kahl's alley - he delivers a performance that's both tasteful and powerful, perfectly complementing the rest of the band. Kahl's bass playing helps make it a true ensemble piece.

The Lyrics 

Everything you do tells me its alright   

We stay up on the phone late night 

I just wanna make it back to you  

 

Everything moves in slow mo 

Never ever will i let you go 

This distance is just what we have to do 

Oh i cant wait to make it back to you 

 

Being away is just so hard 

Cold nights looking at the stars 

I try not to think of you and me 

 

Because it shakes me and breaks me up inside 

But i know ill get through this night 

Yes i do know it to be true 

Oh i cant wait to make it back to you 

 

Together we make sense  

Together we compliment

Together we’re the best 

And i wont settle for nothing 

No nothing less 

 

Everything you do tells me its alright 

We stay up on the phone late night 

I just wanna make it back to you
