Magnet – Hold On
Magnet is more or less the brainchild of Evan Johanson who hails from Norway . He finally returns with the first taste of his new album. His last single was a Bob Dylan cover, and it was a duet with Gemma Hayes. I know some might find it hard to believe but it was a stunning rendition of that track. Ever since I first heard that, I have been after Magnet material. “Hold On” starts with a simple banjo part, one of the most under used instruments. The track then builds into a sweet little pop song. Evan’s voice is a bit filling, and strong and really fills out the song. For something a little bit different Magnet, offers a very nice fix.
