{"product_id":"pratt-moody-cold-diamond-mink-hard-way-to-live-you-bring-me-joy-7-inch-single","title":"Hard Way to Live\/You Bring Me Joy - 7-Inch Single - PRE-ORDER","description":"Pratt \u0026amp; Moody return with a new 7\" single on Timmion Records, pairing \"Hard Way To Live\" with \"You Bring Me Joy\" - two deep diving soul cuts that reaffirm their place among the true pioneers of the modern sweet \u0026amp; beat soul revival. Written and recorded together with Timmion's trusted house band Cold Diamond \u0026amp; Mink, the single continues a lineage that has consistently blurred the line between contemporary songwriting and timeless soul aesthetics. The A-side, \"Hard Way To Live,\" finds Pratt \u0026amp; Moody firmly in their beat ballad lane. Built on a warm, funky foundation, the song balances emotional weight with melodic lift, as it's chorus opens into crossover soul-pop territory. Lyrically, it wrestles with life-earned scars and the quiet difficulty of letting go of pain that they cause - the feeling of keeping on running even after you've spent the last of what you had. \"On the flip, \"You Bring Me Joy\" unfolds like a slow-burning David Lynch scene, it's dramatic crawl evoking soundtrack soul before bursting into a Stax-era Staple Singers inspired chorus. Tremolo- soaked guitar lines nod to classic dark surf music, while Emilia Sisco's gospel-tinged background vocals nod to Mavis Staples, elevating the track into full emotional bloom. Together, these two songs offer a vivid preview of Pratt \u0026amp; Moody's upcoming album - a deeper plunge into soulful storytelling, their tried and tested lowrider soul chops, and modern clarity, soon to follow on Timmion Records.","brand":"Pratt \u0026 Moody \/ Cold Diamond \u0026 Mink","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46973723017391,"sku":"617308043426","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshized.com\/products\/pratt-moody-cold-diamond-mink-hard-way-to-live-you-bring-me-joy-7-inch-single","provider":"Freshized","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
