Band: THE TRAMPOLINE DELAY (Milton, Ontario, CA)
Who: An outfit that began as an outlet for Pete Marino, a skilled
songwriter and multi-instrumentalist with a knack for crafting
catchy, dynamic, guitar-driven indie rock tunes.

New single: THE RIGHT STUFF

A fresh piece from the band’s sophomore album, titled Tandem Bike,
that will be unveiled gradually, with each song being released over
the next 12 months.

Marino (frontman/songwriter): ““The Right Stuff” dives into the complex theme of love and loss amidst the turbulent journey of life. It’s a raw reflection on how external pressures can wreak havoc on relationships—temptations, the daunting transition into adulthood, and the fear of losing one’s identity all play a role. Sometimes, we find ourselves at a crossroads, torn between making the right decision and succumbing to impulsive choices with lasting repercussions.

At its core, the song delves into the aftermath of a regrettable decision and the need
for redemption. However, beyond the surface, it’s an introspective exploration of life’s pressures, the weight of regret, and the awakening to what truly matters. It captures the essence of emotional turmoil and the consequences of acting on fleeting impulses,
ultimately leaving scars on all involved.

TUTV: Everybody makes wrong decisions in life at one point, young or old.
People fall down, but have the resilience to get up again and restart to try
to do the right stuff. I guess that’s the message here with this mixed-emotions
earworm.

Melodically, it resonates hopeful and desirous. You can whistle along, hum along
and sing along to its chirpy and feel-good vibes, reminding me of harmonious Scottish nightingales Teenage Fanclub. There’s always a great tune at the end of the guitar pop tunnel.
