Luke chats with all the talented performers who performed at the second Kirklees Most Wanted Showcase on February 20th at the Terrace in Dewsbury. The acts talk about their music, share hilarious anecdotes, and ultimately insightful perspectives on their musical journey.
The gritty rhythm, bouncy bassline, snappy drums and dual vocals make “Where We Come From” an instant earworm – and that’s before Savvy starts rapping. The cold flow of the verses, lamenting the growing rifts between the local community, is a stark but raw display of pain presented in his trademark “Savvy” lyricism.
Wood’s vocals provide a beautiful contrast that cleanly segments the verses from the chorus, as well as emphasising the soulful instrumental with her melodic vocal pads. Community spirit is evident not only in the non-judgmental lyrics but in the sharing of this deeply personal track with another, creating something which transcends both artists individually.
“Where We Come From” is the unifying anthem that all local communities deserve.
