Petal Crush comes from the talented mind of Andy Petrusky, who left behind a promising professional tennis career to devote his life to music. The latest single, called “Of Course Of Course” comes from the project’s new EP entitled Lucky Ever After, which will be released everywhere you stream your music on October 18th. This song channels a new wave-esque approach with its vibrant 80’s pop guitars that help frame the art around Petrusky’s vocals. The single unfolds nicely as it picks up momentum to a dream-pop chorus.
Petal Crush would fit in well for fans of The XX, Cold War Kids, and The Killers, and I came away fairly impressed with Petrusky’s approach to songwriting on this song that is fairly simple in its construction, yet has several earworms within it to be memorable. If this is the style that Petal Crush is going for, I’ll be very much looking forward to the rest of the material once Lucky Ever After drops later this month.
