“Dream To Keep Us Going” by Easy Wanderlings – A Song Review

     Typically, attempts to repeatedly shift the driving force within a song meet with failure. “Dream To Keep Us Going” is an exception. The track retains its Pop, easy flowing vibe from start to finish, but does so within a spotlight that is mounted to swivel.

     Even the intro has two parts. “Dream To Keep Us Going” begins with an acoustic guitar and one-syllable vocals sharing the spotlight. Other instruments (such a delicate electric guitar) provide short-term support. This continues until 1:18, when part two of the intro is controlled by an electric guitar. In the body of the song, male vocals drive the song, with only a hint that Easy Wanderlings includes a second person with lead-vocals capability. That changes at 2:24, when the spotlight shifts to the second vocalist, and the track is female vocals-driven. Later, the spotlight is on a 1970’s George Benson guitar (3:41), until a band shout of “Wooo” marks a shift to a saxophone drive (4:09).

     Finding information about Easy Wanderlings is not an easy task, so we included a video of five members at a Sofar event. The group is based in Pune, India. Names that have surfaced are Pratika Gopinath, Sharad Rao, Malay Vadalkar, Parmarth Rai, Sanyanth Naroth, Abraham Zachariah, and Nitin M Krishna.
