No one could’ve expected nor been prepared for a song so positive about change or doing something you’ve never done before, to the point where they’re excited for it. Here comes “Overthinking”, which, at first glance, will prompt you to take a breath and brace yourself for what’s coming. But, it’s just an honest, vibrant, and reassuring song.
Wild Horse is a four-piece band from East Sussex, England, which consists of singer-songwriter Jack Baldwin on vocals and guitar, Ed Barnes on drums, Henry Baldwin on bass guitar, and Phil Taylor on keyboard and synth. Produced by Gary Stevenson, this song happens to be the first one they put out as a multi-member band.
Comprising an incredibly addicting hook, the song navigates a handful of questions that make the title make sense, and resorting to just figuring and winging it all in the end. It’s definitely got its quips in more than a few lines, which is sure to win audiences over.
Mixing the topic with their infused sound of guitar pop, indie, a bit of funk, and more in between, Wild Horse has managed to make something that’s usually serious and frantic into comic relief, without tarnishing its significance and genuinity. All in all, the concept for this song is clever, and once you listen to them, you’d want to listen to more titles by them.
