LA-based singer/songwriter Teddy Grossman has released the soulful single ‘Giving Up’, off of his forthcoming debut solo full-length Soon Come due out on March 11 available to pre-save and pre-order HERE.
‘Giving Up’ charts a pathway through the heart of American roots and soul music by channeling a universal frustration of unrequited love.
“I wrote this song towards the end of a brief, unrequited love affair – poking a little fun at me and my bruised ego,” Grossman told Under the Radar Magazine. “I was listening to Blake Mills’ Dylan cover ‘Heart of Mine’ at nauseam at the time, and Bob’s ethos of avoiding any shred of vulnerability definitely found its way into the song.”
Lamenting the walls that hesitant loves build, and the pride that keeps one another from opening up, Grossman pours his own unique vulnerability into his music, all while honoring his R&B influences, legends such as Otis Redding and Bill Withers. Grossman laments the lost potential of early love, and finds solace and acceptance in going at it on his own.
