Rick Tyson’s “Call Me Don’t Text Me” is a track that immediately hearkens back to the rock of the early 1980s. There is a decided electronic (think INXS) influence even as Rick’s vocals end up being the focal point of the song. The video (attached below) does well to amplify some of the themes and trends that listeners will observed during “Call Me Don’t Text Me”. With Rick’s vocals pulling double duty in weaving the narrative of the song as well as bolstering the overall depth of the instrumentation, it’s no surprising that Tyson’s latest cut is something that is more cohesive than other singles coming down the pipeline.
