This song was supposed to be very different.

It started when Steve Peiffer approached me to come up with a summer banger – something that he could release down at the shore. We got together one night and…failed…we failed hard. What Steve wanted was…

I grabbed my iPhone, placed it on the table, and quickly recorded the following:

While certainly not the club hit we were shooting for, this felt like it had potential. The original song title, “Beaches and Bros” no longer felt appropriate and eventually this would be renamed to “Infinite Summer”.

The next day, the song progressed into a more workable demo:

In time, I would tweak a few lyrical lines and wrote a second a verse to be sung by a female. Stay tuned…more to come on this one!
