Nicky Aiken – I’m On Fire
Nicky Aiken was the lead singer of the band Temple Sons until, due to a difference in ideas and plans, he decided to pursue a solo career. And to make this moment of transition official, the single ‘I’m On Fire’ was released.
The song combines classic and contemporary approaches by presenting bluesy, 70s hard rock-styled riffs and combining them with the modern indie-rock package. However, what stands out most is Nicky’s passionate vocal performance that culminates in an anthemic and explosive chorus.
After one learns that the song’s lyrics are practically autobiographical and refer to the artist’s trajectory from war-torn Afghanistan to the moment of his new solo initiative, it is not difficult to understand why Nicky sings with so much soul. The song is his manifesto of triumph and rebirth in the face of adversity. Ultimately, the song sounds so powerful and uplifting because we can all relate to Nicky’s journey.
‘I’m On Fire’ showcases the uncompromising drive of an artist that firmly believes in his music and is willing to make the hard choices in order to pursue his goals. Nicky plans to release two more singles in the coming months and continue to write music that captures his feelings and ideas. Make sure to follow him on social media so you don’t miss the next releases. Here is an artist who believes in what he does.
