Named “Best Pianist/Keyboardist” by the Cleveland Free Times, Rob Kovacs has been widely hailed for his shape-shifting musical experimentalism, spanning history-making classical feats and audacious recreations of videogame soundtracks to crafting mesmerizing indie rock both as bandleader and now, at long last, solo artist. Kovacs has invested more than a decade in the creation of his debut solo album, LET GO, a brave and bittersweet song cycle written in the years following an intensely impactful romantic relationship and then recorded over an even longer span. Songs like “Fizzle” and the urgent first single, “Here In The Future” are cinematic yet intimate, sweeping in their sonic approach and composition yet deeply vulnerable and private at their heart. “I look at songs as snapshots of where you are in life,” Kovacs says. “Who you were then makes you who you are today. So even though it’s been a long time since I wrote them, these songs are definitely part of who I am. I haven’t completely discarded who I was then.” With its ambitious compositional palette and hauntingly potent songcraft, LET GO affirms Rob Kovacs as a fully focused and steadfast artist, evincing a rare commitment and creative persistence rarely seen in our ever more short attention span society.
