Singer-songwriter Jason Mayer’s latest single, “Kind of Wild,” is a tribute to all the amazing women he’s crossed paths with. In particular, Mayer was inspired by the carefree, adventurous women who motivated him to become a better man. “Kind of Wild” delves into those moments in life when certain people can completely change a person’s outlook, a sentiment many of us can relate to.
The fun-loving aurora that “Kind of Wild” maintains resembles old-school icons like Kenny Rogers and Don Williams. The song possesses the same explosive country instrumental and light-hearted, upbeat vocals of past songs but feels completely fresh and modern at the same time. It opens with a thrilling instrumental consisting of upbeat drums, jangly guitars, and bass. Mayer’s raspy vocals add a hard-rock element to the track, while the cheerful instrumental creates an exhilarating atmosphere, invigorating the listener.
Lyrics such as “I feel alive when I’m with you” and “You can show me all the things I’ve been missing; You’re a wild child, untamed and free” highlight the positive emotions that Mayer experiences from meeting carefree and easygoing people. Whereas romantic pop songs or emotional ballads often discuss feeling “safe” or “calm” around their partner, Jason Mayer’s music offers a unique perspective on how different sides come out of you depending on what type of people you’re around.
“Kind of Wild” is available on major music streaming platforms. Take a listen today!
