Vincent J. Rigney's "Tidal Wave Of Love" is a definite mover that gradually takes shape, enveloping the listener in warmth, sincerity, and a profoundly human pulse.
"Tidal Wave of Love" is a portrait, at heart. Rigney says of a lady who would be gentle, loving, and kind. People say she was a healer, and being in her presence feels like being with God. Rigney demonstrates respect and emotional clarity toward his subject, so the sentiment feels natural and personal. But the outcome is a song with little hint of fantasy and all of someone’s life.
What’s notable about this release is its sense of place. The track was recorded in Rigney's hometown of Corby, Northamptonshire, and came together with the help of local & UK talent. That spirit of community runs its thread through the song. The performance and production seem real, as if they weren’t created in a faraway studio somewhere but rather emerged from people who believe the story being told.
Through music rooted in emotional truth, Rigney is still trying to find out who he is as an artist. "Tidal Wave of Love" doesn’t want to drown you, it wants to buoy you. It is a tribute to the transformative power of love wrought by one remarkable woman, a healing force, unshakeable and steady.
