The Great Escape live up to their name on “Let Me Go Wild”

The Great Escape brings on the funk on "Let Me Go Wild." Fronted by Ingrid Andersson’s chirpy yet commanding vocals, the Venice-based band feed from a miscellany of influences ranging from classic soul to sleek pop rock. "Wild" takes many stylistic shifts during its lively three minutes, touching on some neo-soul licks and brass band theatrics worthy of a grand romp. The trio wholly embraces the old in the new without resorting to shameless parody, and really, when you’re basing your song’s structure off of Tommy James & the Shondells’ classic "Mony Mony" you can’t do no wrong.
