‘Why’d We Fight’ is the gorgeous and emotive debut single from loving country rock outfit The Loose Salute.
‘Why’d We Fight’ is a beauty-drenched country soul ballad and a classic-in-waiting that has produced one of the great female vocal performances in recent times. Indeed it is because of Lisa Bilson’s natural affinity for vocal harmony and the luscious, virtuosic accompaniment lead by cascading lapsteel guitar that this reflective ballad of a relationship gone bad evokes a powerful sense of longing, yearning and heartbreak.
‘Why’d We Fight’ maybe a lilting classic in waiting but it is no way indicative of all of the bands critically acclaimed debut LP ‘Tuned to love’ released this summer. A winning contrast between rainbow-flecked poppy breezes that put a spring in the step and contemplative, melancholy ballads that pull at the heart strings. But whichever mood they choose they always get it spot on.
So here they are and here it is, The Loose Salute, alive and ready to blow the cobwebs off and inject some much needed Yeeehah! into the oft bland musical landscape: With The Loose Salute it’s only a matter of time before you’ll time you’ll be reaching for that dial, cranking it up several notches and letting the good times roll!
