Behind The Tracks: WILD SPELKS - Take It From a Friend (Single) (2024)

Jonathon Sabiston: ‘Take It From a Friend’” is quite a departure for us, slightly veering towards Americana as opposed to the comfort of pop rock. The track has a much broader instrumentation than what we're used to, featuring trumpets and acoustic guitars alongside the usual distorted guitars and thumping drums. I was lucky enough to have fellow North East singer Joe Ernest Allan (ernie) join up with a soulful lower octave throughout the verses and gorgeous harmonies in the chorus. Lyrically, there are themes of depression and helping friends through struggles that resonate with your own.
