American singer and songwriter Jillian Jacqueline shares her brand new single Cult Classic, a nostalgia-infused piece of music.
Written as an ode to great, timeless films such as ‘Casablanca’ or ‘Say Anything,’ Cult Classic is also a beautiful love song, celebrating the love and magic two people have, like it’s as strong as the ones we see in films. A beautifully-written gem that is flawlessly conveyed through Jillian Jacqueline’s stellar vocals which radiate so much soul and emotion, capturing my attention from the start. Accompanying Jacqueline’s lovely vocals we have delicate fingerpicked guitar plucks nicely intertwined with banjo riffs, twangy guitar lines, steady drum beats and rich textures that come together to create an overall warm, intimate atmosphere with a memorable dose of nostalgia and romance.
Speaking about the song, Jillian Jacqueline said,
I’ve always been fascinated by people’s love stories—whether they’re strangers, friends, or anyone willing to share the intimate details of how they fell in love and stayed in love. Naturally, my husband and I are one of my favorite love stories. Whether it’s ‘Casablanca’ or ‘Say Anything,’ I think every romance has that perfect blend of drama and steadfastness. The day we wrote this song, the melody and lyrics carried that same cool nostalgia you find in a great, timeless film. And it makes me want to dance—which I absolutely love.
