Written and recorded together with Timmion’s trusted house band Cold Diamond \u0026amp; Mink, the single continues a lineage that has consistently blurred the line between contemporary songwriting and timeless soul aesthetics.\u003cbr\u003eThe A-side, “Hard Way To Live,” finds Pratt \u0026amp; Moody firmly in their beat ballad lane. Built on a warm, funky foundation, the song balances emotional weight with melodic lift, as its chorus opens into crossover soul-pop territory. Lyrically, it wrestles with life-earned scars and the quiet difficulty of letting go of pain that they cause – the feeling of keeping on running even after you’ve spent the last of what you had.\u003cbr\u003e”On the flip, “You Bring Me Joy” unfolds like a slow-burning David Lynch scene, its dramatic crawl evoking soundtrack soul before bursting into a Stax-era Staple Singers inspired chorus. Tremolo-soaked guitar lines nod to classic dark surf music, while Emilia Sisco’s gospel-tinged background vocals nod to Mavis Staples, elevating the track into full emotional bloom. Together, these two songs offer a vivid preview of Pratt \u0026amp; Moody’s upcoming album – a deeper plunge into soulful storytelling, their tried and tested lowrider soul chops, and modern clarity, soon to follow on Timmion Records.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLISTING\u003cbr\u003eSide A:\u003cbr\u003e1.
