Flowery and airy, carrying you away from the hellscape that our country has become in the last two weeks to instead deliver you to a place where beauty and comfort exists is Ex Reyes’<\/a> new EP\u00a0Do Something<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The EP starts out with their single “Bad Timing,”<\/a> which is a jazzy, upbeat track that showcases falsetto vocals from Ex Reyes, aka Mikey Hart<\/a>. It’s epiphanic and revelatory, which is a perfect lead into the piece as a whole. It also flows smoothly into the next track, “If U Come Runnin,” which will tinkle around your head for days with its quirky synths that spiral away.<\/p>\n

From there, you’ll experience “Keeping You in Line,” which will do anything but that. You’ll feel yourself floating this way and that throughout this track as the music washes over you and transports you to a different world. Following that is a sobering dose of reality from the brief interlude track “Hard to Stand,” which will ground you after your mysterious journey from the prior song. The EP closes out with “Where U Callin From,” which features Wild Belle. With brassy elements that recall ska days of yesteryear and tinkling keys that dance up and down your spine, it’s a fantastic note to end the album on. Plus, Wild Belle and Ex Reyes’ vocals seamlessly complement one another.<\/p>\n

If you’re looking for a bit of music to help you realign and center your soul, then you’ve found the artist to follow.<\/p>\n
