By the sound of this track, I believe Kris is preparing for an upcoming festival slot between Saves the Day and Foo Fighters. This one goes straight into top 5 Sour Guy songs for me. He ditched a cramped apartment in Santa Barbara for two bedroom home in Denver, and us followers have noticed Kris taking full advantage of the jam room in his basement on TikTok and IG. I believe we will see Kris Schobert rise to the likes of Rick Beato and Jacob Collier, but for now, we are reaping the benefits of alternative basement Sour Guy and I’m loving it! These guitars sound sick, the vocals are even sicker. On “Bait Taken”, we see Sour Guy reach a new level of core.
