Song: "When the World Stops Turning"

Coming from the home of iconic rock n' roll musicians like Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi, and The Gaslight Anthem; Connor Bracken and the Mother Leeds Band is nodding to the big names, but still carving out a path all of their own. The band has been making waves with their ferocious live shows, and their latest single, "When the World Stops Turning". It's one of those songs you want to turn up in your car and sing along with at the top of your lungs. "I'll be ready when the world stops turning, I'll be ready when your knees start shaking, I'll be ready when it all starts tumbling down," sings frontman Connor Bracken.
The song starts with a crunchy blues guitar riff and a steady rock beat. As the track progresses the guitar tones swell and layer to compliment each section, leading to impressive solos on guitar, along with really rocking drum crashes and fills. The deep bass grooves underneath everything, adding depth and a tangible 70's rock feel. With each return of the chorus, we hear Bracken's voice gnarling with intensity, and spirit, bringing the song to a climactic ending.
