As the music builds, the first verse's lyrics paint a vivid picture of urban chaos and inner turmoil. The protagonist finds themselves lost in a whirlwind of petty quarrels and distant battles, seeking solace in the soothing rhythm of the rain.

This longing for closeness is echoed in the mesmerizing chorus, which repeats the refrain "Still raining" like a mantra, emphasizing the relentless nature of the rain and the protagonist's desire for connection.

In the second verse, the focus shifts to the delicate balance between love and pride, as fleeting moments of intimacy are overshadowed by unresolved tension and stubbornness. The lyrics evoke a sense of melancholy as laughter echoes fade away under the cold, grey skies of Berlin.

As the pre-chorus and chorus are reprised, the intensity of the music reaches its peak, driving home the emotional intensity of the protagonist's plea for reconciliation.

Wont Go Down Without a Fight

Even before you get to his musical career, Gary Dranow has an exciting and impressive resume. A young equestrian turned Motocross champion, a clothing line entrepreneur turned mortgage broker, a renowned ski instructor, and an academy founder. Gary Dranow has undoubtedly grabbed life with both hands and squeezed a lot out of it.

It is something that is reflected in his approach to music, too. He has been playing in bands since the age of 12, when The New Invaderz saw him first tread the boards. Since then, he has been on a long and exciting musical journey, leading to, most recently, the album Destiny Road, which includes, amongst other subjects, songs about his experiences with Bipolar 1 Disorder.

Musically, he runs across the sonic spectrum with a freedom that few other artists allow themselves, making styles and sounds as eclectic as southern blues and rootsy restraints, heavy metal onslaughts, and understated balladry totally his own.

His current EP, Never Give Up, sits more in the middle ground of his sonic adventures, the perfect place from which to appreciate the quality and accessibility of his songwriting. The title track neatly blends rock and roots, Jimi’s Song is a lush celebration of his iconic hero, and Shimmering is a song that ebbs and flows between pop and a hard place. It’s the tip of the iceberg regarding his back catalogue, metaphorically speaking, but it is also the perfect place to first dip your toes in Gary Dranow’s sonic waters.

Gary is one of those rare artists whose wide and varied back catalogue offers something for everyone. Whether you like your music hard and heavy, understated and atmospheric, pop-aware and accessible, bluesy and blistering, or anything in between, you are assured to find not only something to like but songs to love.

And if you can’t find that in this vast and eclectic collection of his past and present songs, you may need to reassess your relationship with the musical art form.
