Described as “an anthem of resilience and optimism,” “Good Trouble” is the stirring debut single from Dylan Kight & The Nightbirds, a project that formed last year.
The “how does a moment disappear?” vocal beckoning ventures into a caressing, lush guitar-fronted section with ample intrigue. The verses re-appear thereafter with cohesive seamlessness. The production on “Good Trouble” is faultless in its rock/pop intertwining and soulful vocal charisma, with a vocal tone that reminds fondly of Gregg Alexander, and exuding a sturdy ’90s nostalgia in general with its balancing of hooky warmness and emotive lyrical relatability.
