Los Angeles based singer-songwriter Eddie Gomez has released his new single "Nothing Like This Love."
The retro pop track, produced by Eddie and production team The Firm, is the first release from Gomez since his 2013 hit "Monsters."
Inspired by classic soul and rock and roll, Eddie has been in the studio hard at work crafting new songs with elements of retro pop harmonies and feel good melodies.
"Nothing Like This Love" is the first taste of the new sound of Eddie Gomez.
"Before writing ‘Nothing Like This Love’ I told myself I need to feel inspired by something, by anything!" Eddie explained. "So I sat in my studio for days going through old records, old songs and artists from previous generations. I came across Marvin Gaye and Tammy Terrel's greatest hits album and I just remember thinking, 'I can't believe it took me this long to find this!'“
“Every song from ‘Your Precious Love’ to ‘Ain't No Mountain High Enough’ to ‘Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing’ and so on, the whole album is amazing! I could not stop listening to their music, and I wanted to write something like that. Marvin Gaye and Tammy Terrel - that duo and that album is what inspired this song. Sometimes keeping it simple can be the most impactful. I wanted to create something that would emotionally touch people the way their creativity touched me."
