Sammy Brue shares his latest single True Believer via New West Records.
True Believer is the third track to be released from the already critically lauded upcoming sophomore album, Crash Test Kid. Having just completed tours opening for Michael Kiwanuka along with Marcus King before the COVID-19 pandemic, Brue was forced to cancel his trip to SXSW (likewise).
Since then, Brue’s spending the past several weeks at home in Utah, where he’s been performing live on his Instagram Stories. The most recent is taking part in Consequence Of Sound’s Livestream tribute to one of his musical heroes, the iconic John Prine.
“It seems like a great time for this song to come out. It’s really easy to live in doubt, in fear, in sadness – even more with what we’re all experiencing together now. This song’s about using the power we all have inside of us. Some people find it easier to get to than others. It’s ok to be a dreamer, to be inspired. This song is all of that wrapped into one big melodic burrito!,” states Brue. Tasty indeed, the results begin with a chill intro; then, the barbed layers of sound take over in an anthemic crescendo.
