The Portland-based artist, Jacob McCurdy, is taking a different route this time with his latest release, “Feels Like Home,” as he’s used to executing breakup anthems, but this time he chose to shower us with love and vitality.

“Feels Like Home” is a heartfelt, uplifting Americana song that is dipped in other various genres like Soft Rock, Indie Pop, and Folk to give a powerful taste of McCurdy’s versatile artistic identity. The single combines smooth, well-structured elements that get one immersed in the adoration story and its ravishing cinematic scenes.

The single kicks off slowly with Jacob McCurdy’s dulcet, charming vocal line that soon bursts with life with such a charismatic delivery. The instrumentation owns a big portion here in setting the mood with the atmospheric, peppy wind instruments, light-hearted chords, and dynamic percussion. Both the vocals and the musical composition harmonize beautifully, inviting one to sing along and sway merrily.

Alex Calabrese and Phil Holub co-wrote the song with Jacob McCurdy, and collectively, their musicianship definitely resulted in a phenomenon. The song is exactly as the title suggests; it “feels like home.” It helps draw a picture in one’s mind of what warm, compassionate love feels like, even if one is not yet in a relationship.

In every day’s hustle, we search for a comfy and delightful tune to lighten up the ambiance. “Feels Like Home” is the ideal choice to provoke this feeling. Also, it’s the first of three upcoming singles, so stay tuned!
