SINGLE REVIEW: Mike Freund - Lucky Ones
Mike Freund dives deep into raw rock ‘n’ roll with ‘Lucky Ones’, a track that’s brimming with power and purpose. The song draws sharp contrasts between life’s divides—those born into comfort and those who have to fight for everything they get. Freund’s lyrics are hard-hitting and unflinchingly honest, offering a gritty perspective that feels as grounded as it is compelling.
The music brings the heat with a driven, infectious groove led by baritone guitars and Freund’s raw, soulful vocals. There’s a vibrant energy in his delivery, blending rock and blues with a touch of authenticity that’s impossible to fake. Midway through, the track erupts into a fierce slide guitar solo that adds intensity and an anthemic quality, elevating the song without straying from its roots.
What sets ‘Lucky Ones’ apart is how it pairs timeless rock instrumentation with a narrative that feels pointed and relevant. Freund has created a song that’s equal parts gritty and reflective, powerful in sound and poignant in message. Fans of rock, blues, and soul will find plenty to love here, but this is a track for anyone who craves music that hits both the head and the heart.
