“Easy” by VIVE – A Song Feature


     “Easy” is an intelligently conceived and skillfully executed sequence of muscle flexes, beginning and ending with an ear-catching display of vocal strength. The single from VIVE is packed with melodic diversity, despite being “only" two and a half minutes long.

      “Easy” begins with gentle piano and slightly muffled vocals. There is a guitar that enhances the texture, but it is easy to overlook. A more pristine guitar flexes at 0:25 with an impossible-to-ignore fitness. Impossible for 13 seconds, when power percussion transitions the song into a Rock showcase.

     VIVE is a Brooklyn-based trio. The members are David J Portalatin (guitar, vocals), Jon Lammering (drums), and David Mack (keys). They will release a debut album later this year. We assume it will include “Stay,” which we featured in 2018 (also included in this post). "Stay" received more than 10,000 streams in 2018 and was played in more than 20 countries and over 30 cities worldwide. The song was added to more than 100 user-generated playlists, with a combined follower account of over 30,000. We predict "Easy" will receive even more attention.
