These days it seems like it’s pretty hard to come by a genuinely summer-infused, indie-pop song with a matching video to boot. But that is exactly what Jason Turbin, aka Cadence Kid, has effortlessly managed with his latest single “Hold On Me,” and just one of the reasons why he is our Artist of The Week.
Turbin describes himself as “naturally introverted”—hard to believe based upon “Hold On Me” which feels flawlessly open and easygoing from the first bar. The track is filled with upbeat, breezy vibes that remind you of what summer is really about. The instrumentation is exacting throughout—and Jason performs it all himself (excluding drums constructed by Grammy award-winning producer and brother, Cassidy Turbin). If you’re a fan of Foster The People and Peter Bjorn and John, you’re in for a real treat.
Despite his relatively unknown status, Jason is not at all new to the music industry; he’s orchestrated and composed music for many films, as well as Dream Theater’s number one album The Astonishing. Jason is definitely not one to enjoy sitting down and twiddling his thumbs, and we hope for this reason he’s going to keep the summer sizzlers coming.
