“Shadows of Old Love” is the first single from Holden Laurence’s upcoming sophomore album, Rewire, out on May 10th. As evident on previously featured “A Whisper and She Takes Me,” the Cleveland native is highly adept at crafting jangly, ’80s soundscapes with strong melodic appeal — led by soaring vocals, jangly guitars, and lush synths. The “breathing in black dust,” hook touts a yearning quality that’s very memorable. Certainly, Rewire seems to be a likely success.
