Kingdom Calm‘s brand new single, “In My Mind,” is a punchy and powerful track that explores the trap of overthinking and the feelings of regret that comes with thinking too much and not taking action to get to where you want to be. The Sydney-based trio’s fresh approach to songwriting has resulted in a dynamic and energetic classic rock sound that will have you singing along no matter where you are.
The song was born from a writing weekend on a farm in western New South Wales, where the band had just watched an old prison movie. Drummer Andy came up with some lyrics about being trapped in a prison-of-the-mind, and the music flowed from there. The chorus is infectious, and the song’s themes are relatable to anyone who has found themselves in a cycle of negative thinking.
The production of “In My Mind” is magnificent, with the band being lucky enough to have the one and only Scott Aplin come in and record keys and organ for them. The recording, mixing and production were done by Adam Alexander at Bamm Bamm Wolfgang, and the mastering was done by Paul Stefanidis at Viking Lounge Studios in Ultimo. The result is a polished and professional sound that perfectly captures the energy of Kingdom Calm’s live shows.
The band’s success in Sydney is no surprise, with venues around the city selling out when they perform. The Factory Theatre, The Chippo Hotel and Kelly’s on King are just a few of the many venues where the trio has packed the house. They are planning to tour the East Coast of Australia in the coming year, and it’s safe to say that their shows will be an unforgettable experience.
Kingdom Calm’s sound is influenced by classic rock bands like Dire Straits, but they bring their own unique style to the table. Their approach to songwriting is fresh and exciting, and “In My Mind” is a perfect example of what they are capable of. The song is grooving, catchy and relatable, and it’s sure to become a fan favourite in no time.
Overall, Kingdom Calm’s “In My Mind” is an excellent addition to their growing catalogue of stellar releases. The songwriting is strong, the production is superb, and the performance is energetic and engaging. The band has a bright future ahead of them, and it’s exciting to see what they will come up with next. If you’re a fan of classic rock with a modern twist, Kingdom Calm is a band you need to check out.
