With their new single "Give It A Try," Roast Apple invites listeners into a laid-back indie vibe that feels warm and open like soaking in the last rays of summer sunshine. This isn't just another song, it's the band's first fully self-written and independently produced track. This creative freedom shines through in every note.
For Roast Apple, this song represents a fresh start. After working with various talented producers over the past three years, the four childhood friends from Northern Germany decided to take control of their music. "Give It A Try" is a result of that brave choice, a song that gently nudges us to keep moving forward, especially when life feels stuck. Its upbeat energy serves as an encouraging reminder to embrace new experiences and not let fear hold us back.
The track evokes a serene, scenic drive through the countryside at sunset. With smooth guitar melodies, steady rhythms, and relaxed vocals, it creates a comforting and uplifting atmosphere. Rather than being overly dramatic, the song eases into your heart, encouraging you to take deep breaths and enjoy the journey, enabling you to explore for yourself.
This independent spirit extends beyond just the music. Roast Apple not only wrote and produced the song themselves but also took charge of its release and promotion, stepping into the independent scene without a record label. Even the music video is a DIY creation. Filmed in Osaka's lively Shinsekai district during their shows in Japan, the video captures the band enjoying a typical Sunday abroad playing arcade games, trying delicious Japanese food, and taking a relaxing stroll in the park. It reflects the song's theme of diving headfirst into new adventures with joy and curiosity.
