Broadjam Artist: Fred Kimmel
Song: ICU
Reviewer: Bob Birthisel
Positive Comments: Very Pop-friendly rocker with a cool vibe. Interesting vocal fits the song well, and it was just a fun listen even at 4:25 in length. At times I heard influences from Prince, Power Station and Jon Butcher. Particularly 90’s kind of sound, but for me that’s good thing. I liked it a lot.
Constructive Comments: For me, way too much distortion at times. The instrumentation is excellent but it was like ingredients that hadn’t been properly mixed together for me. Having the guitar so far back in the mix was kind of a drag since I’m a guitar guy. As for commerciality, I’m not sure a Music Supervisor would bite on the unusual ending. Having said all that though, it’s still a nice little song and I enjoyed it, listening all the way through twice.
