Produced by Matthew Bandy, “Grass is Greener” is a beautifully melancholic synth-soul number that is sure to please the broken beat & modern soul connoisseurs alike. Lyrically, this song is a heartfelt ode to following your dreams, and will sound like a reaffirmation to anyone who has treaded their own path, had set backs but the strength & will to keep moving forward. It’s about hope. Donn T is more than a song writer, she is indeed a poet.
Remixes
In addition to the original, underground House music producer Matthew Bandy rounds off the package with a signature interpretation. His mix has a balanced combination of darker Detroit inspired sounds for the verse and lush analogue synths for the chorus that swim around his trademark drum programming. The mix takes its time to build a deep yet warm foundation for Donn T’s vocals.
