The keen reader might remember American songstress Amy-Lin Slezak from a feature we published just over a month ago, celebrating her as having the “ability to blend different genres into a cohesive and unexpected new formula”. We stand by our words; Slezak is not afraid to go where her lyrical inspiration requires her to go, spanning country, rock and pop in the process. Following up on ‘To Grow Old’, Amy-Lin has now returned with another country-flavoured banger, ‘Known 3 Yrs. Seen 24 Hrs.’.
There’s a distinctly uplifting and positive quality in it, a pop-lenient character that makes the single incredibly relatable and familiar. Built as a nostalgic anthem towards Slezak’s youth days, the song seeks to pay a heartfelt homage to the old, carefree times. Amy-Lin’s dynamic and commanding vocal tone is the perfect match for such a powerful effort, allowing the New York-based creative to speak directly to everyone’s existentialist nostalgia.
Delving deeper into the inspiration behind ‘Known 3 Yrs. Seen 24 Hrs.’, Amy-Lin explains: “It reflects on younger days when the dorm room was home, margaritas were on hand, and mix tapes were our love language! The song will drive you straight back to your college days and the friends (with benefits, wink, wink) that got you through the breakups and the shake-ups!”
