John Tumminello - Eventually
|
 John Tumminello may not be a household name right now like McCartney or Lennon but this fine effort will Eventually get under your skin like it did mine and remind you of some of the pop gems the Fab Four churned out during their heyday. Industry folks looking for new and fresh talent should have a serious look at this artist.
Tumminello has a strong pop-rock sensibility and he plays and sings intuitively, making his music and lyrics so enjoyable and addicting that you have no choice but to submit to those often-ignored pleasure zones in your brain.
All of this music is radio ready pop tunes that will bring forth thoughts of long summer days and the warm breezes of youth. Sweet as those thoughts may be this man finds himself in a huge pool of artists trying to carve the very same niche for themselves in the world of Indie music. So what separates this guy from the pack? He primarily he has great music to offer, but his experience and knowledge of the business will help to take him to the next level. With all this happening you would think being successful is a sure thing…nothing is a sure thing in the music business. One thing you can count on is that this man has a good head start.
Perhaps some words from the leadoff track “Here I Am” will give you example of what a poignant artist he is…
Let me into the place
Where your shattered soul resides
Give me all the love you kept bottled up inside
Give me all the love you kept, you kept
Here I am
Where are you
In this life we cannot choose
Who we love or who we lose
Here I am
Emotive and well thought lyrics to say the least, not lyrical content that is senseless babbling, it’s all heartfelt emotion set to highly energetic power pop. It will set your senses reeling and coming back for more. My hunger for music with substance and depth is satisfied temporarily listening to albums like this, although I find it necessary to reach back and draw from the well frequently, hence playing a CD like this five or six times within a few days is commonplace. Yes indeed, you will not feel that you are a “Half a Mile from Happiness” while listening to this music. This is a strong set of songs with above average production qualities.
Everyone needs a little poetry in his or her life to make each day more meaningful, let John Tumminello personally deliver his music to your heart, you will Eventually find your way home.
