Single Review: Calling Out

Calling Out has the pacing of a hit dance track, but the style is very much ballad-esque. Soft, thick vocals from Amy Maynard, she almost struggles with the pace to start, trying to hang onto those sultry notes while guitarist Aaron Gott keeps pushing the track onwards. Any timing incongruities are cleared by the first chorus, where we are greeted by some beautifully passionate melodies, vocal harmonies, and piercing highs. 

Calling Out is a slow building track with minimal guitar presence in the first act until Gott’s vocals signal the second phase of the track, and it goes full pop. While the chorus is repetitive, it drives home the emotions conveyed through the lyrics; an unconventional love song. An evocative piece, with a bold beginning.
