The 16-year-old Bordentown-based music upstart Jake Ryan has released a new pop-edelic single, “Out of Body,” the video for which makes its media premiere here as the Makin Waves Song of the Week.
As the Makin Waves Song of the Week, “Out of Body” also can be heard between 6 and 8 p.m. on Oct. 15 on “Radio Jersey” at ThePenguinRocks.com.
Jake’s vocal delivery ranges from soft, whisper-like lines about a failed relationship to Prince-esque falsetto cries rich with emotion; all accompanied by eerie guitar solos and loud rock drums.
The track was inspired by Tame Impala, Childish Gambino, and Funkadelic. ‘70s funk, soul, R&B, and rock also inspired Jake’s disco-like outfit on the cover of his new single.
