Single I Robert Jon & The Wreck – Back To The Beginning Again
Robert Jon & The Wreck Tap Into Raw Reflection With New Stand-Alone Single “Back To The Beginning Again”
Southern California roots-rockers Robert Jon & The Wreck return with “Back To The Beginning Again,” a powerful stand-alone single recorded at Sunset Sound in Los Angeles, self-produced by the band and mixed by engineer Alex Pasco. Anchored by stacked guitars, a swampy groove, and soaring vocals, the song is a textbook southern rocker, subtly infused with shades of ’90s grunge and alternative influences.
“‘Back To The Beginning Again’ was written while on tour sometime last year,” shares guitarist Henry James. “The song reflects on deeper feelings of disillusionment and depression that happen while on tour and working in the music industry as a whole.” Built around a sludgy, bluesy riff and a howling Hammond organ solo by keyboardist Jake Abernathie, the track captures both the band’s introspective side and their trademark swagger.
As Henry explains, “As we get more invested in the business, politics, and hustle of this life, it can become difficult to feel connected to the initial pureness and excitement of playing music that made us fall in love with it as children and teenagers.” Lyrically, the song yearns to return to that simplicity – “a desire to go back to those feelings of excitement and freshness from the early years of performing in bands.” The result is an emotionally charged reflection on mental health, purpose, and rediscovering the spark that first inspired their love of music.
“Back To The Beginning Again” follows the band’s acclaimed studio album ‘Heartbreaks & Last Goodbyes,’ out now via Joe Bonamassa’s Journeyman Records.
