Singled Out: Rai Thistlethwayte's Go Nuts
. I recently saw a write up about my song 'Go Nuts' describing it as a 'Robo-Funk Jam.' That definitely brought a smile to my face. I wrote this one in a Sydney studio with 2 other friends while I was on a 5 day songwriting intensive, and at the time, dug the groove of it but didn't know when, where, and how it would see the light of day. I'm glad that this has become the title track of my recent album, because in an indirect way, the song really speaks of a liberation from many things that before were kind of holding me back previously. I love what John Fields, the producer, did here - and we 'went there' with the key change and that's gunna stay haha. I love Abe Rounds' drum performance on this, Paul David Hagar's mixing, and Tom Coyne's mastering. It just kept getting better n better. I'm stoked to share it with my friends, listeners and fellow musical associates. I'd love to play it live on tour as soon as possible! Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself as you watch the video here, buy the single here and learn more about Rai right here!
