Captivating the Senses: After Adam’s ‘Cosmonaut Cowboys’ Fuses Pop and Faith
Written by Staff on 15 May 2023
Introducing a twelve-track album of Pop and Christian Pop tunes designed to connect, After Adamâs âCosmonaut Cowboysâ hits the scene with equal parts professionalism and outright passion for the artform. Founded by the late songwriter Justin Murr, of Pekin, Illinois, After Adam is a celebration of a lifelong affinity for music and the art of crafting and performing commercially catchy songs.
Having sadly passed away due to complications from Covid-19, towards the end of 2021, Justin had recorded the collection and released it exclusively on CD. However, given the passion and skill on display, it seemed tragic to not let the album hit the digital realm to find the extent of its audience.
As such, on May 26th, 2023, âCosmonaut Cowboysâ will be released on all major streaming platforms, through Jonathon Brannonâs Label Hip Rock Records.
From the unmistakable opening moments of a timeless âThe One And Onlyâ, through the modern piano-pop tones and lightness of âWave Of Hopeâ, and later into the funk and stylish groove of âLove Like a Discoâ, âCosmonaut Cowboysâ emerges as one of the most eclectic and colourful albums of the year.
Far from presenting a single mood, the album is impressively heartfelt, and maintains its integrity of Faith and connection with blissful offerings like âAngel Babyâ, âBorn Againâ, âPlay The Gameâ â as well as the stunningly honest and intimate âCompletely Yoursâ.
The project also makes sure to shake up the pace when necessary, with rockier hits like âGumshoe in a Deep Sleepâ, and infectious country-pop twists like the unforgettable âRosie Graceâ.
Bringing together co-song-writing efforts from Brannon and the additional talents of Slovenian Pop Group BQLâs Anej Piletic, After Adam and the âCosmonaut Cowboysâ release promises a wealth of timeless classics designed to connect with and uplift listeners in the way that only finely-crafted Pop Rock and Faith truly can.
Featuring smooth production alongside dashes of soulful rock guitar and faultlessly bright vocals, the project compiles an array of enjoyable songs and musical threads that naturally raise the mood of the room.
