It’s a beautiful and plaintive melody, with open and honest lyrics about mining the past for clues to happiness. On her new single Roller Disco, Jennah Barry ties a bow around her lost love and kisses it goodbye.
A simple strum through the verse gives the song a slightly tropical flavor, until the jazz voicings pick up over the chorus and we are cast into a bed of flutes. It’s a wonderful sense of melodic precision accompanied by a broad and orchestral production.
