With one hit after another, USA based Dream Trippers is checking all the artistic boxes of one iconic 50s rockabilly hit after another…and now their song “I’m Going To Memphis” is upping the ante and raising the bar..
“I’m Going To Memphis” is one of those songs that will fit perfectly in a movie…especially when the characters of the movie are actually going to Memphis Tennessee…I can practically hear it in my head playing in the scene.
The song is a very upbeat and energetic rockabilly experience with a very focused and tight playtime of 3 minutes.
“I’m Going To Memphis” is part of Dream Trippers‘ EP “The Sound Of Sun“…and this song has a backstory to it…actually the band got some recording time in the iconic Sun Studio, actually Brian Cottrill’s wife booked this studio time as a birthday present to him…and this was the beginning of the 11 hours road trip journey to reach the iconic studio in Memphis, Tennessee.
Dream Trippers always manages to keep their energy and their unique style of the iconic 50s at the highest levels of production…”I’m Going To Memphis” carries the emotional energy and upbeat nature of the happiness the band were going through along their journey to the iconic studio…and this emotional energy comes through the record crystal clear.
The song starts with a very charismatic tom toms intro on the drums…the vocals with its flavorsome slapback delay and the rockabilly guitars and bouncy bass lines…it’s a very enjoyable ride, something to start your day with to get a boost of bright emotions…it’s the equivalent of a musical energy drink.
We wish all the best to the Dream Trippers, they are absolutely crushing it.
Cheers!
