Overall Impression:
In a time that seems to focus exclusively on division and dispute, The Silvers release an original song designed to remind listeners of the validity of their voice and the power that it carries!  Stand Up approaches a weighty motivational idea with a sense of coolness and commonality, encouraging any who find themselves afloat in the soundscape to take charge of the choices they have available to them.

Strongest Point(s):
The bass line and overall drive of Stand Up are great – and the transition into the chorus spaces feels really organic and rewarding.  Excellent lyrics, the emphasis on taking control of what you can is a stellar central concept. Very catchy hooks as well – the echo effect on the action words, “Stand Up, Wake Up, Let Go” makes the lyrics that much more accessible.  Really clever work!Target Audience Appeal:
Listeners with a mind for activism will find the words of Stand Up personally resonant, and the ingrained musicality of The Silvers serves to make the sentiment feel three-dimensional and deeply engaging.  Stand Up takes a relaxed approach to a very motivational message, and the result is as moving as it is groovy.  Awesome work! – Jon W.
