Neal Morse & The Resonance release new single "Thief"
Neal Morse & The Resonance delivered their new single “Thief” yesterday.
The song is the second taste of the band’s forthcoming studio album No Hill For A Climber, which will be released on November 8 via InsideOutMusic. An accompanying music video can be seen here.
Morse, who is best known for their work in Transatlantic and Flying Colors, said this about the new single:
“Thief had an interesting writing process. I woke up from a very deep afternoon nap with this idea of people singing ‘thief’ in these high voices and then saying stuff in between. It was really weird. But I thought it might be cool. So I wrote the beginning part and then had no idea where to go. I phoned Chris Riley who lives close by and he came over and he had the idea to put in the kind of evil sounding middle section. The drum beat has a kind of hip-hop feel which was not my idea at all. I had written it with a swing feel, and when Joe Ganzelli came in to do a drum track on it, that was his idea! I think it really makes the song special and different. Neal Morse with a hip-hop feel? Love it!”
No Hill For A Climber can be pre-ordered here.
