Broadjam Artist: Tristyn Leach
Song: Wicked Game ( cover ) feat Cyndi C
Reviewer: Chris Tso
Positive Comments: This is a nice cover version of the classic Chris Isaak version. When tackling a well known cover it’s challenging to add something fresh or give a new perspective but I think this version does that. The production stays in character throughout the song. The low strings/cellos add a nice somber supporting tone to the production. The opening vocal sets the tone nicely and conversationally.
Constructive Comments: While the overall feel was something that felt like it would be good for TV, the vocal production could be enhanced. Most of the time the pitch was spot on but there were moments where pitchyness was a factor. I also thought the background vocal could have been approached differently. Maybe with more treatment on the single vocal or changing it to more of a wash of harmonies to evoke the memories of why “I don’t want to fall in love with you”.
