When it comes to expressive, evocative records with a healthy anthemic content, JB Elwood is always a guarantee. Hailing from Austin, the talented singer and songwriter has a rather old-school aura around him, an artistic force that allows him to pen elegant, catchy rock-pop gems packed with meaningful and relatable lyricism. ‘Visiting Hours’ is yet another example of it. Following up from Elwood’s previous piece, ‘Right Here’ – which you can find on our website too – ‘Visiting Hours’ is seen adventuring into the same rowdy, all-out path.
Introduced by a smooth and gentle blend of country-flavoured acoustic guitars and pop-oriented grooves, ‘Visiting Hours’ does a good job of retaining a global pop outlook with a cowboy-inspired livery. A wholesome and heartwarming piece, the single also contains strong Americana roots, an element that can often be found in JB’s artistic output.
Lyrically, we are in romantic and breakup territories, with Elwood manifesting his introspective songwriting in a positive, resilient way. As he explains: “Fueled by personal heartbreak and crafted with emotional precision, this song explores what it means to be left alone when you need someone the most–and how to find strength in that solitude.”
