The Holidazed come forth with a bright new single, "Under One Galaxy." Mixing reggae, rock, and funk into a genre-busting, soul-lifting anthem. With "Under One Galaxy," The Holidazed provide more than a song, more than a reminder, even a means to listen and remember that we're not quite so far apart as we sometimes feel. With music like this, we may be closer than we realize. For festival-goers, jam band zealots, and pursuers of feel-good tunes, you'll want a new go-to here. This is not background music against a summer day, but the music you remember in one of those moments, the kind where strangers turn into friends and everybody sings the same chorus under the same sky.
The second single from their upcoming album "Everything" (out July 18), "Under One Galaxy," is a ray of sunshine onstage at your favorite festival. It's that kind of song that gets your heart in its message and your feet on its rhythm. The live-band vibe is immediately unmistakable from the first few seconds. The grooves are taut, the melodies soar, and McGregor's vocals are both anthemic and sincere, reminding us that wherever we hail from, we're all part of the same cosmic narrative.
The Holidazed have never been shy about mixing and matching elements. Still, this track seems particularly dialed in, with a reggae pulse combined with crunchy guitar riffs and thick, funky bass lines, all bundled into the precisely the sort of sinuous groove that greases the way for movement. The lyrics preach without being preachy, yet they reach across cultures, borders, and divisions. "Under One Galaxy" is a song about unity and celebration, a reminder that at our very core, we are all connected by something bigger than our differences. Everything drops on July 18. Until then, let "Under One Galaxy" serve as your new summer jam and your reminder that we're all spinning through space as one.
