Andy Magruder shares his astonishing self-titled debut EP
Shared officially on July 23rd, Andy Magruder has just put his perfect for summertime self-titled debut EP, Andy Magruder. We are loving this one! Please read on for our full review of the record, in addition to a background on the artist.
Expertly blending an equal mix of Hip Hop, Electropop, and fresh sounding acoustic guitar, we can automatically declare Andy Magruder’s newest EP a winner. As the hot weather continues to stay persistent in our part of the world, it’s records just like these that help get through the tough times. Kicking it right off, we can overwhelmingly declare this record as a must listen for all the readers out there.
As for Andy himself, he’s been at it both playing guitar and refining his rapping since the young age of 16 years. Always aiming to hone his craft and improve upon himself, he’s gone ahead and accomplished exactly what he set out to do. Considering the music industry has gone the way of blending genres in order to appeal to larger audiences, we’re just beyond thrilled that the execution on Andy Magruder was as flawless as we hoped.
Coming in at 5 songs, spanning just about 12 minutes in complete run time, Andy has provided not only a super replayable record, but one that doesn’t require a specific season to turn on either. We instantly envisioned ourselves laid back grooving as the opener “Unglued” came blasting over the speakers. As the record continued on, a certain cohesiveness showed itself fairly quickly and made for a masterful start to finish listen.
You can honestly feel the love, passion, and effort that went into every single track on the EP. As “fun” instrumentally as it gets in the background, it’s always worth your deep focus to actually listen into the lyricism and make connections to the message and story being told. Not only can Andy craft up an attractive sounding record, but he’s got a story to tell for all who are willing to listen.
There’s really not much else to say here without giving too much away, but we confidently feel that Andy Magruder’s EP needs to be next up in your listening queue. You won’t encounter a single dull moment and the chances are you’ll quickly be converted to a fan for life, we know we are!
