Great Pop Music: Hembree – “Had It All”

Hembree

“Had It All”

Had It All

What a great pop song.  Ringing guitars, great vocals with harmonies from heaven, synth lines that keep the song moving, never dragging.  The band – Isaac Flynn (vocals, guitar), Eric Davis (synth), and Garrett Childers (vocals, guitar) – recorded ‘Had It All’ over the past year and a half in Kansas City, in Isaac’s bedroom and various home studios.  That intimate recording atmosphere shows in the brightness and tightness of this song.  This is the best radio-friendly pop song I’ve heard for a while.  I hear their live show is killer.  If you’re nearby, go see them.
