ELI LIEB, STEVE GRAND, “Look Away”
Readers of this blog are already well acquainted with both Eli Lieb and Steve Grand, about whom I’ve written about many times in the last two years or so, and both have graced my personal chart with their stellar songs. Each singer is decidedly different from the other, but “Look Away” is both a co-write and a duet that brings the best of both worlds together. Essentially, if you loved A Great Big World’s “Say Something”, then “Look Away” is its companion song. It brings together all of the emotions and racing thoughts about what to do next, just before a breakup occurs, and the realization that it is likely all ‘never again’. I’ll be very happy if this is the start of a regular songwriting and/or singing thing for both Eli and Steve, the former breaking away from infectious danceable pop and the latter veering further away from country than ever and into pure pop where he really belongs. You can pick up “Look Away” on Steve’s bandcamp page right here. You can also enjoy the resulting amusing online antics on their respective social media pages 😀
