Timmy Skelly – Soul on Fire

Timmy Skelly’s debut single, “Soul on Fire,” ignites the music scene with its raw energy and heartfelt lyrics. As the opening track of his EP Dive Bar Sermon, this song introduces listeners to Skelly’s self-styled “Midwest Y’allternative” genre a fusion of Americana, rock, and country influences that reflect his roots in Sandwich, Illinois. The track’s organic development mirrors Skelly’s dive bar philosophy, embracing life’s chaos and beauty. His collaboration with producer James Flannigan (known for work with Matt Maeson and Carly Rae Jepsen) enhances the song’s depth, blending infectious melodies with sun-soaked Midwest guitars. “Soul on Fire” is a testament to Skelly’s storytelling prowess, capturing the essence of small-town life and universal emotions.
