Celebrated Japanese-Canadian Alternative-Rock artist Garrett Neiles is best known for his explosive live performances and meticulously crafted songs both sonically and lyrically. His 2000’s era Pop-Rock sound is uniquely nostalgic and modern, delivered with guitar focused melodies and vulnerable lyrics, which routinely invite comparisons between him and Canadian Pop-Rock royalty like Simple Plan and Marianas Trench.
Irresistibly catchy and hard to forget, Garrett Neiles’ new single “Lipstick” is a song about the delightful daily reminders of his partner. Filled with a blend of musical influences from 80’s Pop to early 2000’s Rock, the lush instrumentation of the invigorating summer anthem opens with handclaps, guitar, and keyboard, which introduce the danceable and sunny track. A nod to the little tube that can boost confidence and leave traces everywhere, “Lipstick” embraces the small but joyful daily reminders of those who wear it, wrapped in a Bruno Mars meets All-American Rejects meets Bruce Springstein styled song of the summer. The Pop-toned verses make way for Neiles to share just how much he loves the way lipstick can energize both his partner and himself, building in intensity as the song approaches the bridge. The high octane, energetic and engaging chorus bursts into a Pop-Rock symphony, with electrifying guitar and Neiles’ versatile vocal performance which ranges between his high and low register. Featuring distinctive yet subtle elements, Neiles incorporates layered, choir-like harmonies and the rhythmic use of breaths to draw all aspects of the song together. Celebratory and uplifting, Neiles’ creates a positive and unforgettable 2024 summer knockout with “Lipstick”, which will be sure to delight old fans and new followers alike.
