2019 ESSENCE Festival performers The Hamiltones are slowing things down to heat up your summer playlist with a new single titled, “Pieces.”
Originally titled, “So Gone,” the track takes listeners through the motions of a relationship that has a hit a rough patch. Over the beat of a perfectly-produced slow jam brought to life through the talented trio’s signature melodic vocals, the lyrics hear a man promising to do better and pleading with the love of his life not to leave him brokenhearted.
“Never knew how much I really needed you,” the chorus says. “So baby please don’t walk out that door. It’ll break me to pieces, cause your lovin’ I need it.”
In this exclusive behind-the-scenes clip, group member J.Vito weighs in on the concept behind the single. “This is just from the point of view of a man telling a woman, you know, ‘I love you that much,”‘ he says.”‘Tell me what I gotta do to keep you.'”
“Pieces” is the latest offering from the Hamiltones forthcoming debut EP, Watch The Tones, due out on June 7. The EP is currently available for pre-order HERE.
