San Francisco-based Michellar, delivers something refreshingly honest with “Get me there to Church”. This isn’t your typical country love song. It’s about that moment when living together stops feeling like enough and you realize it’s time to make things official.
The production, handled by Tobias Wilson with vocals from Helen Walford and Harrison Black, gives the song a fuller sound that works well for the subject matter. What makes this interesting is the recording process itself. Demos in San Francisco, final tracks in London and Staffordshire. That geographic spread somehow fits the song’s theme of distance and longing. The arrangement doesn’t overcomplicate things, letting Bond’s personal story drive the track forward.
The lyrics feel lived-in rather than constructed, which is harder to pull off than it sounds. Michellar draws from her own experience of wanting to take that next step, and it shows in the authenticity of the writing.
If this track hits you like it did me, give Michellar a follow. You’ll want to hear what’s next.
