As the world gradually eases back from the deadly chokehold of a global pandemic, the music industry stands abuzz, poised for hot new drops and flavors. Amongst these myriad talents marked for stardom sits a name of note: Iain T. McKelvey. Based out of the beautiful Sydney, Australia, this independent singer-songwriter brings fans an electric and soulful blend of folk, blues, and classic rock.
His musical journey had started in the year 2018, when he released his debut single, ‘Peaches and Cream’. The song premiered at Happy Mag and got good airplay. The track showed his ability to easily tell stories with the help of his expansive instrumentals. So, with a promising start to his career, it would be during the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020 when McKelvey really did start to find his feet.
In a time full of chaos and uncertainty, McKelvey formed The Midnight Tangos, finally really solidifying the project as a full band with a more developed sound. Together, they dropped a series of singles and would go on to electrify audiences at their favorite haunts across Sydney – from The Vanguard to Waywards, and The Lansdowne. But in 2024, McKelvey has returned without the Midnight Tangos banner, deciding to release music under his own name.
While the band still collaborates with his latest release “There Goes Hollywood”, the shift back to his own name does reflect an artist who is now fully confident in his abilities. Out on April 16th, this single is a long-awaited testimony to the growth and development of McKelvey. This time around, he presents an open book in front of himself and its owner, using his most extensive sound yet to show his versatility and proficiency in music.
“There Goes Hollywood” is an utterly enchanting number that delves deep into the complications of human emotion. It is a tribute to the societal pressure and struggle of finding real self amidst the pseudo shine and glow of Hollywood. This poignant lyricism and emotive vocals carry McElvey’s flag high and can only speak to the hearts of many.
