Kelli-Leigh, Back Review

Kelli-Leigh (Kelli-Leigh Henry-Davila) is a British singer and songwriter that has been heard in the UK top 10 singles with “I Got U” by Duke Dumont featuring Jax Jones (“My Love Is Your Love” Whitney Houston’s cover) and “I Wanna Feel” by Second City, as well as the credited vocalist in the UK top 10 single “More Than Friends” by James Hype. In addition, she has sung on a Grammy-nominated album, along with other tracks that have topped the UK charts. Her latest single is titled “Back” and is a fitting song for dancing and life’s playlist. Kelli-Leigh has teamed with producer Liam J Dowell and Theo Douke for the single, released through her record label Music Core.

“Back” has a swirling electronica pop vibe. The song builds nicely to the chorus, which has a pulsating dance beat and flowing melody. Kelli-Leigh’s voice is warm, and the production keeps it sounding natural without overprocessing or effects. The song form builds nicely to a release in the bridge. The vocal counterpoint shows Kelli-Leigh’s impressive vocal chops and embellishments. The song’s energy keeps moving by pushing the beat ever so slightly to the end. Overall, “Back” is a solid dance single that will augment nicely into the summer playlist. That’s the short of it!
