Michael Blackwell Reveals Energetic New Single ‘Down On Your Luck’
London-based singer-songwriter Michael Blackwell will release his forthcoming energetic new single ‘Down On Your Luck’..
The foundation of ‘Down On Your Luck’ is his love of music and unmatched talent for fusing captivating instruments with profound lyricism. The indie-rock offering infuses guitar, bass, drums, vibraphone, tambourine, and vocals. It’s an easy-listening tune in that it showcases Michael Blackwell’s soaring vocals with an exceptional earworm production.
Michaell Blackwell comments on the release, “‘Down On Your Luck’ is a song about coming to terms with the fact that, through your own creation, things haven’t turned out how you thought they would. The warning signs were clear but you chose to ignore them, and whilst avoidance seemed like the easiest option, at the end of the day you were only kidding yourself.”
Reputable media publications including CLASH, NOTION, and WONDERLAND, to mention a few, have praised Michael Blackwell’s music. After a number of releases, ‘Down On Your Luck’ is released in conjunction with the news that his much-anticipated debut EP, A Trip Around The Sun, will be released in October 2023. This will be followed by a string of major performances in Europe and the UK.
Michael Blackwell‘s success is set to soar as long as he keeps giving rock music a contemporary, catchy spin. To his expanding discography, ‘Down On Your Luck’ is a great addition.
ABOUT MICHAEL BLACKWELL
Singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Michael Blackwell is from Seaham in County Durham, England. Having worked as a touring musician and songwriter for many years, he is now prepared to set out on his own. His music blends traditional singer-songwriter, 90s grunge, 2000s indie, and contemporary alt-pop, drawing on a variety of inspirations. By listening to bands like Led Zeppelin, The Police, and The Beatles on his father’s record collection, he was motivated to learn the guitar at an early age. His love for the guitar and songwriting was cemented as he grew to be enamored with several 90s bands and musicians, including Radiohead, Jeff Buckley, Soundgarden, Nirvana, and Stone Temple Pilots.
Dmillyyy kicked off the month of love with the lead single, “Balance.” “Balance” was Dmillyyy’s first song of the year. The record served as a teaser for his new EP, Cupid Pack, which was released on Valentine’s Day. Cupid Pack is a five-track EP that dives into the intricacies of love. The EP is an eclectic body of work as it utilizes various genres of music, such as Alternative R&B, Melodic Rap, and Reggaeton.
Cupid Pack starts off with the song, “Thunderstruck.” The track is a record that features a wavy beat and Dmillyyy’s smooth flow. The sound is reminiscent of Jaden. The next track, “Balance,” is a fan favorite and for good reason. “Balance” has a bouncy beat that makes listeners want to groove. The record has a Drake feel to it. The catchy hook reels you in immediately. Dmillyyy cleverly sprinkles in some Spanish lyrics, which are a prelude to the third track on the EP. “Q.M. Interludio” follows “Balance.” The Latin Music interlude showcases the versatility that Dmillyyy possesses. The penultimate track, “WYGD,” is a downtempo, love song that is enchanting. The tune has a sample that blends well with the theme of the song. “WYGD” sets up the EP’s closer as “Madness” is another slow jam. “Madness” is the perfect finale. The sensual track embodies passion and love.
The EP’s introspective/extrospective take on love provides all listeners with songs that resonate with them. Although each song has its own flavor and unique sound, they still connect and carry a cohesive message. “Cupid Pack is an image painted to describe different emotions that may arise for particular love interests.” Dmillyyy continues: “Sometimes it isn’t that serious and just the feeling that you want to cherish. Sometimes the other’s existence makes you want to question everything and reflect back on your own life. Either way, both parties are living in the moment and letting that lead the way.” Cupid Pack is only the beginning as Dmillyyy has much in store for the year. While waiting for his next masterpiece, be sure to show love to the immaculate EP that is Cupid Pack.
