Today’s song is “Back” by Oscar Vega. Hailing from the DC suburb Woodbridge,Virginia, the singer/songwriter is a musician by birth. Vega’s father was a singer and guitar player and credits him for his talents.
Oscar started making music just for fun when he was 15. Three years later, he got serious and put out his first single. Entitled “Lucy” the song was an emotionally charged success with 63,100 views and counting on Soundcloud.
His influences range from psychedelic rock artists like Tame Impala and Pink Floyd to alternative and hip hop.
Vega melds these genres with electronic bass and rhythm for an ear shattering trip hopping rock. This music is slow and sexy with a powerful energy that reminds me of The weekend meets Local Natives.
