Following the release of ‘Let It Lie’ and ‘Lucky’, Mountain Boy delivers his next offering ‘Noom.’
Written a few years back, ‘Noom’ underwent many iterations before becoming what it is today. The Waikato based artist explains, “throughout its life cycle I scrapped and revisited the song a number of times, using it as a sort of experiment to try new sounds and recording styles.” The result is a song that harkens back to his older writing style, but clearly sits in a sonic space we haven’t heard from him before. The piano and the lap steel in particular reveal an almost Americana-inspired tilt in the production.
‘Noom’ is the third chapter in a series of songs that Mountain Boy has been releasing over the past few months and sets an exciting precedent for what’s to come. In a recurring fashion, video content will compliment the single. This time the artist showcases his skill as a multi-instrumentalist, performing ‘Noom’ as the official video for this release.
