Inviting listeners into an intimate narrative of love, missed connections, and second chances.
Annie is for those people who are afraid of rejection. Just give it a shot.” - Singer-Songwriter Steve Dennis
ESSEX, MA, UNITED STATES, October 11, 2024 /EINPresswire / -- Today, Indie-folk singer-songwriter Steve Dennis returns with his latest single,“Annie ,” inviting listeners into an intimate narrative of love, missed connections, and second chances. Produced by the acclaimed Jamie Mefford, the track blends Steve 's signature folk sound with the warmth of Gregory Alan Isakov and the laid-back charm of Jack Johnson.
Inspired by a real-life encounter,“Annie” is a deeply personal song that was almost left on the cutting room floor. As Steve recalls,“I almost threw this song out, but after playing it out a couple of times, it shortly became my most requested song. Happy, I stuck with it.”
The story behind“Annie” began when Steve found himself captivated by a checkout girl during a routine stop at a market. Though initially too nervous to act, he turned his car around after leaving and decided to take a chance. The song captures the vulnerability of love at first sight, the fear of rejection, and the courage to seize the moment.
With evocative lyrics and a heartfelt melody,“Annie” will resonate with anyone who's ever taken a risk in the name of love. Fans of artists like John Mayer will feel right at home in the blend of acoustic warmth and storytelling charm that Steve brings to the song.
“Annie” Lyrics Snippet
Annie B. I'm on my way down 95
Repeating just what I want to say
Don't do this much, but I might as well take a try
I can't risk letting you get away
As Steve jokes,“You might cry. Sorry.”
