Sofi Gev‘s third release of 2021 thus far, “Shakedown” engages with a catchy blend of rock and pop. Galloping guitars and playful synths adorn a fun, bouncy chorus. A guitar-based emphasis around 02:22, following “let’s burn it all to the ground,” plays with an alluring fury, especially amidst the backing organ. “Shakedown” is a fully satisfiable track from Sofi Gev, the project of singer/songwriter Hannah Lovelady.
