Larry g(EE) has taken a hop through time.
He shed his 1960s-inspired style for a 1980s groove on brand-new single, "Days Like This." A sexy melody kicks off the electric track, giving listeners a heaping helping of the angular keyboard hook alongside a soulful, simple beat.
Larry g(EE)'s seductive vocals own the track, as he shows off his flexible chords throughout, hitting falsetto notes with ease.
"I love everything we did with Weekends," said Larry Gayao (his given name) of his first album, "but was inspired by how the instrumentation transformed during that era. Artists like Marvin Gaye were transitioning to drum machines and synthesizers to supplement their sound.
"It was his evolution as an artist that inspired me in some ways to follow in his footsteps," Gayao says in a statement. "Soul music will always be a huge part of what we do. Where we're going with our sound now though is further out there ... unique and original."
The single is the first release off his upcoming sophomore record due out later this fall. It is only the second track he's released since his debut album, Weekends, came out in December of 2011.
