Chris D’Agostino’s vocal mastery rises in “Feels like Summer” cover

Chris D’Agostino has just released a new cover song, Childish Gambino’s “Feels like Summer”, on all streaming platforms. Chris has taken a hip-hop song and transitioned it to an acoustic ballad showing his extensive range and his full-bodied falsetto runs. "Feels Like Summer" has an incredibly compelling message about human’s impact on the environment, and the intention was to retell its story in an authentic manner. He completely reimagined the song's instrumentation, put the lyrics front and center, and gave it a slightly uneasy edge to accomplish this. The song was strategically arranged with shakers and percussion fills that add to the flawless vocals and song's precise rhythm. Chris's vocal creativity captures listeners immediate attention, and his creativity throughout the song adds many surprises. Throughout the song you hear a wide variety of enviable tones that make Chris’s vocal mastery shine and fill the corners of the room. He loved the challenge of transitioning a hip-hop song to a slow indie ballad. The song was produced by Terrance Reeves. https://open.spotify.com/track/5ZBUd9T83Y5qLaEkJYVYWh?si=EJLN0GfNQqy4ltkLn7whBQ Chris is a 25-year-old indie/pop singer songwriter from Waltham, MA.
