Singer/Songwriter Oscar Cirac Molina thrusts himself into the foreground with new track, "Under the Lights.," an infectious Pop Rock single which hooks and holds from start to finish. The song is an exuberant burst of energy that combines a catchy tune with a level of emotional intensity that feels personal and universal at once. "Under the Lights." is well-polished but in no way static, and there's just too much rhythmic whimsy to allow it to remain so.
This is that type of song, one that is equally inviting when enjoyed in the privacy of headphones and on a stage designed to fill arenas, illustrating Molina's adeptness as an artist. The instrumentation, the crisp guitar riffs, the punchy drums, and the layered synths form a backdrop that perfectly suits his vocal inflections, which are expressive without ever becoming forced. Molina has a way of packaging up these universal experiences in a musical language that feels easy to follow but multiple-layered, giving the song some depth beyond its irrepressibly catchy hooks.
This track is a particular standout because of its balance, it's emotional without being weighty, and energetically upbeat while maintaining sincerity. Oscar Cirac Molina shows us he knows how to write a Pop Rock hit, which doesn't lose its integrity. "Under the Lights." is a musical blood flowing through over-caffeinated veins, and it's an invitation to join in on that energy, excitement, and emotion that Molina infuses so easily into his music. For fans of contemporary Pop Rock and those just discovering Molina, this track definitely makes him a name to look out for in the future.
