A sun-shining, optimistic delight from Pam Ross, “Have a Good Time” infuses a soulful rock groove with lyrical proclamations to “just wanna have a good time,” within a world filled with hecticness and aimlessness. Shimmering guitars and mellowly melodic vocals exude a carpe-diem sentiment in the verses — appreciating how “the sun’s shining down on me today.” A rising vocal passion past the one-minute turn also enthralls, particularly in the punctuating funk-friendly guitar twangs that ensue.
The North Carolina-based artist excels here with an excellent mixture of introspective Americana and rousing rock expanses — channeling a blues and funk synergy as the vocals soar and then give way to delightful guitar work. Referencing to how experiencing sunshine “can’t be bought,” combines with an overall drive to seize the day, set within a radiant production that easily induces replays.
