Here For You is an indie folk band from Brooklyn, New York. “Theme Song 2” is one of their newest singles released in the run-up to their debut album, “The First Year”. If it is representative of the rest of the album, then folks, I can honestly say that we are all in for something special. The song starts with an understated guitar melody and a clicky beat. Then, in short, kicks up with a great guitar riff and an accordion that is to die for. If you are a fan of unique instruments that fall outside of the purview of mainstream popular music, I think you will fall in love with this song in the first 20 seconds. I know I did. The message of the song is about taking life as it comes with your friends by your side. It is imbued with such wide-eyed hopefulness that it is hard not to feel empowered by it. Not in a “I feel like I can punch a mountain in the face” kind of way, rather it’s a less intense, deep breath, “we got this” kind of way. It is honestly quite endearing. Check out “Theme Song 2” now, and the rest of “The First Year” when it releases on the 24th of October.
