NASHVILLE, TN (June 9, 2023) — Today, Australia-based contemporary R&B artist Bradley McCaw releases the lively sophomore single — “Daydreaming Girl” — from his debut 10-track album, Worried Minds. Characterized by energetic horns, clever lyrics and a beat of sweet nostalgia, the track highlights McCaw’s ability to seamlessly combine blue-eyed soul, Motown vibes, rock ‘n’ roll, and catchy pop melodies.
Top Shelf Music Magazine exclusively unveiled the song yesterday raving, “The track exudes pure, feel-good rock vibes, enhanced by the soaring saxophone played by none other than Australian music legend Andrew Oh. With the saxophone leading the way, the band’s energy becomes unstoppable, charging forward like a runaway train.”
Succeeding the release of lead single “I Want You Back” — a romantic retro groove, inspired by LA legends Toto and Boz Scaggs — the song marks a special moment for McCaw as it’s the first song he ever wrote. Best identified as a true love song, the track is inspired by the classic heartfelt ballads of Bruce Springsteen and the old-school vocals of The Beach Boys.
“The echo in the chorus came about by chance, when I performed the tune to a school choir and they spontaneously sung the line back to me. It felt so good I kept it in all these years later,” shares McCaw. “It’s just pure, feel good rock. As soon as that soaring saxophone is played by Australian music legend Andrew Oh, like a runaway train, the band just can’t be stopped.”
