Calico City unveils a tug of war between alternative rock and reggae on “Got To Go”

Calico City’s latest release, “Gotta Go” is a study in contrast, mixing alternative rock aggression with chilled-out reggae grooves. The song’s explosive choruses are powered by raucous guitars, punchy drums, and rich dual vocals, while its laid-back verses capture the emotional ambiguity at the heart of complicated relationships. That dynamic gives the track an interesting arc from start to finish, with the right mix of intensity and laid back groove. It is as relatable as it is energetic, as refreshing as it is original, and Gotta Go never loses sight of its emotional core.
