TRACK REVIEW: Darren Holmes – Food Or Heat

Having lived in County Durham all his life, Darren Holmes writes original material touching on the relatable realities of life, such as falling in love in the most ordinary of places and personal goals and dreams.

His newest single, Food Or Heat, discusses exactly what the title infers – a choice between food and heat during the current turbulent financial climate. Instead of taking the melancholy approach by creating a solemn, slow song to correspond with the topic, Darren opted for an upbeat tune to bring an element of cheer and humour. This truly represents his down-to-earth attitude, reflected through both the rhythmic musicality and clever lyrics.
