Syntax Creative Clients Take 45 Nominations for the 35th Annual IBMA Awards
DESCRIPTION:
Built on a lively chord progression with roots stretching back to the late 19th century, Benson’s “Bully of the Town” reimagines a popular instrumental in bluegrass circles. The duo adds vocals from Zack Arnold of Rhonda Vincent and the Rage, tapping into the tune’s little-known lyric and injecting it with fresh energy. Arnold’s powerful, youthful delivery brings a new spark to the track, amplifying its already driving groove.
