An emotively impactful track from husband-and-wife Americana duo Eleyet McConnell, “Bed of Roses” infuses a bluesy Americana production within Angie McConnell’s powerful vocal presence and ruminations on the resilience apparent in true love. Chris McConnell’s guitar work captivates alongside, particularly in an affecting solo that rounds the three-minute turn — emitting a grippingly melodic fervency and ’70s rock nostalgia as warming organs linger underneath. “So tonight, I wanna lay down in this bed of roses,” Angie’s vocals follow up, sending chills in its more subtle instrumental backing as Chris’ spirited guitar work re-emerges thereafter.
The production excels in shifting between emphasizing Angie’s bluesy, sincere vocal power and Chris’ electrifying guitar work. The final refrain — “you know where I stay,” — depicts that aforementioned perseverance; every relationship has its share of bumpy roads and rocky waters, and a mutual reminder to a partner that you’ll always be there can be particularly vital. “Bed of Roses” captures that feeling, and the promise to stick together especially, within a passionate and sincere rock and Americana captivation.
The track comes via their album Crazy World, streaming below:
