 DEMOS STRAIGHT FROM (17)

Demo of the Week: “The Heartbreak Kid”

WritersWill Bowen, Scott Stepakoff

Vibe: Finding sunshine in the dark-dusty corners of nostalgia

Key lyrics: “that guitar string ring I gave her on one knee / 21’s old enough for drinking / but too young to know what I was thinking / she said I do but she only did ’til she gave it back to me,” “every old flame that burned a bridge led me to this”

Could be a good fit for: Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill

X factor: The wisdom and retrospect that’s best delivered from the voice of country veteran, with a melodic line that’s catchy and appealing across all listener levels
