Once upon a time, not too long ago, a trio of seasoned pros decided to stir the pot. They called themselves Big Yard, a name that hinted at more than just musicโit was a playground for the senses. These guys weren’t newbies; they were maestros at blending the old with the new, mixing up contemporary rock, pop, and that silky smooth jazz with a dash of big band flair and a sprinkle of R&B soul.
Their first act, “Proof,” was just a teaser, a mere appetizer for the main course. And now, they’re back at it with “State of Mind,” a track that’s as smooth as butter on warm toast. It’s a throwback tune with a twist, you see. Darryl Scotti’s vocals? Pure charm. The horns? They weave through the melody like they’ve got a mind of their own. And those lyrics? They’re like an invitation to hop into a time machine, destination: groove town.
It’s a song that’s both a nod to the past and a wink at the future. “State of Mind” is a cocktail of memories and modern vibes, a tune that grabs you by the hand and says, “Let’s dance.” With every note, Big Yard proves they’re not just playing musicโthey’re crafting experiences. And boy, do they have us hooked.
