GUN have released a double single, Lucky Guy and Falling, taken from their upcoming album Hombres.
“The song is about a time I had celebrating my birthday in Los Angeles,” vocalist Dante Gizzi comments on Lucky Guy. “Having the opportunity to be playing in GUN at that point ,and also at such a young age, it was one of the most surreal and amazing experiences I’ve ever had. I felt like I was the luckiest guy in the world. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the memories we create and cherish in our lives are the greatest gifts anyone can ever have.”
“Falling was a song idea that initially came from Jools,” he adds about Falling. “I remember him showing me the chords and the melody, and in an instant, I totally got it! I totally fell in love with the idea and he knew that. Whenever this situation happens I have to ask him to leave me to it so I can piece it together the way I hear it in my head, which he wholeheartedly agreed upon. For me, the most important factor of the song was how to make it build the right way. I got so into it, it took just a few hours to finish the demo version which doesn’t really differ that much from the album version. Probably my favourite song on the album!”
