Arts Fishing Club Gets Juicy With New Single “Gary Busey”

Arts Fishing Club’s “Gary Busey” encapsulates the absurdity of life and trying to find its purpose, as well as the pleasure that can come with accepting things for what they are, and allowing the journey to take you where it may. Leaning towards a more surf-rock means of production, this track combines staccato vocals with a smoother bassline to illustrate a contrast between life’s complexities, and the attitudes you can take towards them to stifle the blow. 

The track’s lyricism poses a type of question towards daily living that makes listeners inquire what it’s all about, or rather, “How are we ever gonna get out of here?”. A softer timbre in frontman Christopher Kessenich’s vocals reflects a more relaxed philosophy in regards to life and all that it entails, also illustrated track’s composition, creating a musical texture that brings out this more carefree disposition in listeners alike. The contrast between sharper verses and the track’s more fluid chorus also depict how sometimes life is truly what you make it, and the actions you take to deal with the circumstances you are placed in have just as much impact as the circumstance itself. 

“Gary Busey” is no exception to the rest of Arts Fishing Club’s discography in its exploration of the human condition and utilization of a more grounded texture and sound to unite listeners in their experiences and remind audiences of life’s incongruity, highlighting the importance of gratitude towards what it is you are granted, and the potency a more relaxed perspective towards life and its challenges may have in the long run. “Gary Busey” urges you through both its lyrics and its composition to take a step back and acknowledge that life isn’t meant to be perfect, with its real beauty rather lying within the chaos and the
