SomeKindaWonderful

"Reverse" released on March 3rd via Downtown Records is the new song by the Cleveland three-piece group, SomeKindaWonderful. The track is endlessly catchy and it feels both modern and classic, nodding to 60's soul and contemporary R&B with the dynamic range of big-room pop-rock and cinematic emotion. Their debut album will be released sometime this summer.
SomeKindaWonderful members include Jordy Towers (vocals/lyrics), Matt Gibson (guitar) and Ben Schigel (drums). The three musicians met at a bar one night in Cleveland.
"We were basically a band without a lead singer and Jordy was a lead singer without a band," says Schigel. "We headed back to our studio the night we met and, literally three hours later, our first song "Reverse" was done.
"Reverse" features Towers unraveling a backwards narrative with a cadence that merges rap and soul, provides a novel lyrical framework to a unique sound.
"It's an R&B soul rock record," says Towers. "It sort of mirrors my move from LA to Cleveland. That path is reversed from what you'd expect. Nothing is deliberate. Just like how we met, it's natural and all about the music. I still can't believe I met my musical soul mates at a bar in Ohio."
