Kygo: Stole The Show
"Stay" has everything Kygo fans want from him. There are the same melodic patterns and sounds that give off a strong whiff of the summery, relaxed and island vibe that come from a Kygo track. Normally he goes with a male singer, but the addition of Maty Noyes works well on this record.
It is another solid effort from Kygo, but as listeners start to look to a full-length where more is expected from an artist, it will be interesting to see if he continues with these same melodies and sounds for a full album. Some experimentation and growth would be expected, but to completely ditch the sound he has championed might be a little disingenuous. Either way, fans eagerly await Feb. 12.
Kicking off 2016, Kygo is attempting his biggest live performance yet. He is headlining Barclay's Center on Jan. 21 with a brand new live show that he has been unveiling at various shows during 2015 including one at Hollywood Bowl, where he had John Legend as a special guest. Pick up tickets here.
