Review: "I Think It's You" - Shane Rennison


"I Think It's You," Shane Rennison's latest indie pop-rock offering, rings with an emotional clarity that slices through the heart of a complex narrative, a song that unravels the tangled yarn of introspection that often accompanies the tail end of romantic relationships. Rennison, in his vivid storytelling, confronts the gut-wrenching realization that sometimes the source of disharmony isn't a reflection on oneself but lies in the imperfections of one's partner. Verses laden with poignant elegance and relatable scenarios depict the soul-searching journey after relentless, albeit fruitless, attempts at mending "what's broken," leaving one ensnared in the throes of acceptance. It's a song that evokes the universal experience of grappling with the intricacies of love, marked by an epiphany that becomes both the closing of a chapter and the start of a path paved with resilience.




The sonic landscape of "I Think It's You" transports the listener into the core of Rennison's artistic vision—a seamless blend of indie rock rawness and the slick, engaging pulse of hip-hop rhythms. The music cascades from gentle guitar melodies into a robust orchestration of drums and synths, each layer conveying the mood of contemplative fortitude. Rennison’s voice, a rich instrument in itself, displays a malleable range that shifts from vulnerable to potent, infusing each lyric with impassioned authenticity. The instrumental palette and Shane's vocal performance conspire to evoke feelings that range from somber reflection to a spirited resolve, capturing the essence of confrontation and the charged calm that follows the storm of realization.


Shane Rennison carries the verdant beauty of the Catskills with him, channeling the soulful energy of his Upstate New York roots into his music. His genre, an alchemy of indie pop-rock imbued with elements of hip-hop, reveals a versatility that only serves to underscore the breadth of his talent. With a foundation built upon diverse influences, his original songs and renditions of eclectic covers showcase not just a musician, but a storyteller whose journey began with the strum of a guitar and the beat of a drum. As he primes his fans for the release of his upcoming album, 'IRRATIONAL,' set to drop on June 28th, 2024, Rennison stands poised to unfurl a wealth of new tracks that promise to both stir the soul and raise the spirit, continuing to build upon his catalog of authentic and stirring musical narratives.
