Californian singer and guitarist Pembroke Tenneson has unveiled his new single, “Sex Appeal”, the first release from a collection of 14 original tracks.
Classic rock influences including The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac and The White Stripes inform his musical outlook, while the humour and storytelling of artists such as The Kinks, Joni Mitchell, Joe Walsh and Wheatus provide inspiration for his approach to lyrics.
Speaking on “Sex Appeal”, Tenneson says, “‘Sex Appeal’ is based on swaggering early '70s rock. All those old bands are brash, fun and ridiculous, so when I wanted to write a song inspired by that style, I had to keep my tongue in my cheek. Those guys are outrageous characters so I had to play one too. The recording process was great fun.”
I find the song extremely enjoyable from start to finish, with fantastic bass lines and a quality production. The chorus is super catchy and the song will make you tap your foot. A quality release from every point of view and with a superb sound, enjoyable from start to finish.
