Lawson Hull has the kind of vocal that stops you in your tracks. Accompanied by the L.A. singer, Lily Kershaw, the combination is utterly captivating. There is a whimsical pop elation that circles around in melody. The vocals are soft and playful, with each artist having a go and coming together for these brilliant moments. The tonality between the two voices has an honest and down-home cadence that feels right and is warming, like a comfortable knit sweater.
Paint is a tune depicting the encouragement or growth of a relationship. This is Lawson’s new tune that Lily has brought full circle. This Australian singer/songwriter has depth to his lyric and involves such charming instrumentation and level of production. Paint is a lovesong, and one of 6 new tracks on his 2020 EP, Dreaming Is Easy.
The electric guitar has an eclectic warmth in the chorus but is held back from going all out against a playful synth and melodic-pop-infused lead patterns. The acoustic is truly the foundation of the song, and the production team did a fantastic job balancing this mix.
