Blunda is the North Hollwyood project of multi-instrumentalist Andy Blunda who has returned with a breezy summermade folk-inspired jam entitled “Pulling For You,” taken from his 5-track EP entitled “Pulling For You”
The track only gets better as it goes along, fusing it’s smooth vocals with some well-crafted backing strings that give it an epic scope and orchestrated feel.
Here’s a bit of background from Blunda about the formation of the new release:
When the pandemic hit, I was just finishing up composing the music for Season 5 of Jay Leno’s Garage. When that ended and my composing work slowed down I decided it would be a great time to write some new material for my solo project, Blunda. Interestingly, I found it very difficult to write as I watched the world around me fall apart. It seemed pointless and trivial to write music at a time when so many were suffering and daily life had become so fragile. Looking for inspiration, I went back through old hard drives of demos and songs that I had abandoned or just hadn’t gotten around to finishing. Many tracks being over a decade old, I found I could be more objective and play the roll of older wiser producer to my more emotional and artistic self.
These 5 tracks seemed to somehow fit together and were for me a cathartic way of finishing the old in order to make way for something new. In a way, this EP is a bridge to new material that I am currently in the process of writing. It was where things are and let them go in order for new life and ideas to be born.
