OAKS – “i wanna know”

/

A suave psych-rock stylishness shines on “i wanna know,” a new track from OAKS, the project of Los Angeles-based artist Miguel Oaks. “I wanna know, what we’re gonna do,” a confident vocal drive emanates, complemented by expressive backing vocal complements. Hazy organs are a lovable component throughout as well, invoking The Doors in combination with the debonair vocal delivery. A scorching guitar solo also enamors at mid-point, then traversing into a second half that continues the psych-rock excitement — propelled by magnetic guitar work, bright organs, and melodic vocal work.

This and other tracks featured this month can be streamed on the updating Obscure Sound’s ‘Emerging Singles’ Spotify playlist.

The track is also featured in the genre-based, best-of Spotify compilation Emerging Psychedelic.
