Theo Verney reveals hazy summer track "Easy Street"

Brighton's Theo Verney is renowned for his studio presence, helping other bands get their material recorded and produced at Verney Recordings.

Having taken a break from touring, Theo Verney has returned with his own material, the first being "Easy Street".

The multi-talented musician explains the concept of his new track further, “When I wrote Easy Street, it started off as a slightly sarcastic reflection on how I tend to blow problems out of proportion, even though compared to the majority of people I have a relatively simple and easy life. Or as the great Neil Young puts it “though my problems are meaningless, that don’t make them go away.

“The song was written, recorded and mixed extremely quickly," Verney added, "so it feels a little more spontaneous to me. I think I’m learning to let go a bit more with songs I write and realise that nothing will ever be perfect, which links back into the theme of the song."

The lighthearted melody compliments his breezy voice, which carries a perfect slacker summer sound to accompany the heatwave.

He recorded the new track with band members John Davies and Joe Stevens, as well as American singer Jess Williams.

Verney's new single follows on from his 2017 album One Small Piece, and his 2015 EP Brain Disease
