Nav's Hook - Twisted Winds
Pop, Rock, R&B, Soul
Hyderabad, India
Overall Impression: Thinking about someone always leads to an overflow of emotions, especially when that person was a romantic involvement and a person you loved. That’s exactly the emotion and feeling evoked in the latest release from punk-indie-pop band Nav’s Hook with their single “Twisted Winds”. Full of melancholy and alt-rock angst, the song isn’t just about the hindsight of a relationship, but also the hindsight of a sound that’s been lost or forgotten.
Strongest Point(s): The song is a catchy tune with a great hook and makes the song's melody and instrumental performance both a highlight and strength. There is a great pulse, beat, and rhythm to the song. The arpeggiated notes of the guitar, bass and drums together create the momentum and rhythm of the song and your foot automatically taps along. The lead singer’s voice closely resembles Sting or Bono, the song is catchy and has a great hook and alt-rock, pop sound. The song has great potential to be a success in alternative and adult contemporary and pop formats. The song is infectious and one you’ll definitely be singing along with and will certainly become an earworm in your head in no time.
Target Audience Appeal: For Fans of rock, pop, pop-rock, indie-rock, and post-punk and emo music
