Dean Ford Previews New Album With Single "Somebody To Die For"

Dean Ford has been a long time favorite here at TOTU, ever since his debut album CTRL. He has been absent for so long, but lucky for me, he posted earlier this year that he was one the comeback and now he's out to prove it. He's back with is first single off his forthcoming album and he's ready to find his "Somebody To Die For".

Oh, Dean. It's been far too long. This guy came from out of nowhere and stole my heart back in the early days of this blog, and he's finally back to mesmerize again. His vocals are still light and airy unlike any male singer on the radio now, and his songs are still very fun and uplifting. It's the good old Dean that we've been missing, and if you haven't listened to him before this is the perfect track to pick up on.

Now, that's not to say that he's serving us the exact same thing. This time around we have zero overly obvious digital drums. Everything sounds more real and organic before, and the topic of finding a true love that is worth giving it all up is very cute and inspiring, a bit of a distinctive change from CTRL's more revenge driven lyrics. I feel like Mr. Ford is finally in a good place in his life. The song also features Renee Coolbrith, although it's not clear in what capacity.

While we still don't have a true release date yet for Get Messy, he is promising that it will come out this spring. Who knows? Maybe it'll be a great birthday present for me! On top of that he is tossing the word "album" around quite a bit, leading this blogger to feel like we may get more than six or seven songs this time around. Now let's hope for the best until I can squeeze all the juicy details out of him!

For now you can grab "Somebody To Die For" on BandCamp (Yay BandCamp!), wherein you can name your price!
