“Living on chemicals / Praying for miracles / It’s hard to make it feel right / When everybody’s looking for a fight.” Have truer words ever been spoken? Nashville-based singer, songwriter, and producer Bryce Fox penned his brief but potent song, “Chemicals”, alongside David Pramik and Kevin Hissink (Boonn). Pramik and Boonn produce the record, which commences with enigmatic vibes from the onset. Furthermore, “Chemicals” maintains the enigma throughout its brief duration.

The songwriting is solid, particularly moments like, “Holy euphoria tease me to sleep / String me along by the powers that be.” Notably, in the second verse, Fox breaks into more of a melodic rap vibe, while maintaining the sanctity of rock – pretty cool.  Of course, the crème de la crème is the memorable, tuneful chorus: “Living on chemicals (oh-oh, oh, oh, oh) / Praying for miracles (oh-oh, oh, oh, oh).”  All in all, Bryce Fox brings the heat on “Chemicals”.
