All things considered, March 2020, wasn't all that long ago. But with subsequent lockdowns across the world in order to control the global pandemic, in some respects, it feels a lifetime ago! New York's Overcoats released their second album, 'The Fight', back in March and in case you missed out then, here's a taste of the album with the dulcet melodic tones of 'Keep The Faith'.
We previously wrote about another track from the duo's album, the brilliantly bittersweet 'Leave If You Wanna', and its excellent Ryan Hemsworth remix. The soaring nature of 'Leave If You Wanna' is continued on 'Keep The Faith', while flip-reversing the lyrical angst of the former track - "Darling, take my hand, don't give up on what we have. Forever is all I want, and it's not even long enough." And they've only gone and put out a wonderful strings version of 'Keep The Faith' recently too, emboldening the loving sentiment.
