Looking For My Memories

Thanks for Coming “Zoning Out”

“Zoning Out” is the sound of someone being a bit too hard on themselves. It begins with Rachel Brown explaining why she didn’t accomplish the things on her weekend to-do list in a way that’s maybe 30% apology and 70% self-criticism, and moving on to a catchy chorus of “I will be the worst because that’s what I deserve” that’s about 60% self-deprecating humor and 40% self-loathing. The tune is bold and direct, and the hook is instantly engaging – this may be a young songwriter on Bandcamp, but the songwriting chops are well developed. I could see this shaping into a very strong pop-rock song with a band and good production, but I’m rather fond of this as an acoustic solo performance if just because this is a very pure expression of being all alone in your head and wanting to get out of there.

Buy it from Bandcamp.
