Sky Blue (C’mon, C’mon!) is a continuation of the exciting new direction that Michael took when creating his previous album, Electric Fox!
It too includes some heavier rock influences, plus an exciting new Power Pop single, C’mon, C’mon! that celebrates the excitement of just grabbing your babe and jumping in the car for a fast drive to wherever!
It also includes an exciting back-story about Michael and rock legend Larry Norman’s brother Charles Norman, residing in Norway, collaborating on the more garage-rock-inspired version of C’mon, C’mon! that begins the album; then bookended by the ‘lighter’ breezier version done by the band at the album’s end!
Originally intended as a single; then an EP; the distributor thought it’d be a good idea for DJs to have more songs to choose from, so Michael included the remixes of 3 stand-out songs (Together; Fool, My Eye; and The Longest Time) from Electric Fox, where the mixes by Scott Warren this time around are off the charts ear-popping; and the redux of two previously recorded songs (Rain Downtown and Shadow Talk) that the band does an entirely unique arrangement to!
One final treasure was added to this new record – a song (Nightlights) that celebrates people being there for one another during difficult times (especially in these harsh times); and updated by Michael’s nephew, professional impresario of modern music, Jeff Jacoby from the wilds of Richmond, Virginia.
