Described as “short and sweet song about love lost,” “Red Wine” is an immersive track from Floral Couches. The project of artist Cody Gray has caught our ears in the past with gems like “Feelings I Can’t Control” and “Where’d You Go?” — and now continuing to impress here with “Red Wine.”
“Last night you left late, but never wanna stay,” a lamenting vocal presence emerges, following twangy guitar delights. The flourishing guitars re-emerge amidst ghostly backing vocals as a “didn’t want to leave you on the sideline,” aspirations appear. Introspections on modern relationships pair with a jangling rock nostalgia on “Red Wine,” another highlight from Floral Couches.
