“Stay Blue” is the kind of song that makes you daydream about wallowing in heartbreak, just so you can get as high as possible on its addictive, opiate melancholy.
Мaking misery poetic, sensual and almost sweet while sounding nonchalant is a distinctive balance that very few can tightrope on, and Rory McBride is an absolute natural, carrying shades of a softer Leonard Cohen and Jim Morrison.
Speaking of musicians/poets, McBride’s poetic heart can’t be restrained by genres, and to get a different taste of his inner world, you can check out the Black & White (Caveat Emptor: Episode 1), part of his recent book of poetry, Caveat Emptor.
And if you like your melancholy bittersweet and in strictly musical form, “Stay Blue” is part of McBride’s upcoming EP, Sonic Lullaby, which will make rainy days a blessing in disguise.
