EDDY FAULKNER, “Cruel”
Virginia-born but now L.A.-based singer/songwriter Eddy Faulkner has a no-brainer winner with his new pop song “Cruel”. Getting away from the power-pop of his EP Unbreakable, featuring “All The Way” which I wrote about last Spring, “Cruel” offers a gentle but sometimes emotional vocal up against a really big and rich, full-sounding house-y backdrop, which helps bring out a bit of a dark side to the song. It’s amazing what a lot of hard work will do in-between releases, but Eddy’s sound has matured significantly and stays ahead of the game with a song that easily stands out from the rest. It does beg some dance remixes, so you can watch for them in the coming weeks 🙂 Pop and dance radio will find themselves with a listener-friendly song in “Cruel”.
