Synesthesia can be a complex, difficult idea to communicate to those who don’t experience it. Sure, there’s a good chunk of musicians who perceive sounds as colors, but to instill that into the DNA of a song so it is evident to all listeners can be a pesky thing to nail down. That’s exactly what duo Good Days accomplishes on “Orange, ” the latest single from their upcoming album ROYGBIV. The track blends together the harmonic bliss of 60’s surf-pop with subtly implemented soul-pop flourishes that offer up a full-bodied depiction of an orange sunrise. The same way, the group transforms uplifting platitudes into genuinely motivating assurances with their lyrics, they also flip nostalgic vibes into something that feels fresh in its execution. You can stream “Orange” below and be on the lookout for the rest of the colors to be represented on their forthcoming album. -Tucker Pennington
