2.12.13 - New Music - Phillip Phillips

As much as I don’t really care about American Idol, I really like Phillip Phillips. Sure he’s, as one comedic website put it, just another white guy with a guitar, but I don’t think we have too many of those…yet.

Phillips’ first single “Home” was a big worldwide success, and while nothing on his debut album ‘The World From the Side of the Moon’ might match that power, that doesn’t mean it isn’t still a pop-rocking good time.

“Gone, Gone, Gone” is the second single and a sweet love song that is sure to make plenty of suburban teens swoon over Phillips’ boy-next-door average good looks. The song maintains his somewhat distinguishable sound and mixes it with a Mumford & Sons fervor and full band energy.

The track is as unpretentious as Phillips himself, and therein lies the charm.
