Nashville’s The It City—a four piece band of acclaimed and seasoned studio and road musicians—bring elements of pop, funk, rock and soul, all seamlessly merged into one package.

Coming in early 2019 the band—DJ Phillips (guitars, vocals), Derrek Phillips (drums, percussion,
backing vocals), Rich Brinsfield (bass, backing vocals) and Reed Pittman (keyboards, vocals)—is
set to release their debut self-tilted EP. Recorded in Nashville at Forty-One Fifteen Studios, the
seven-song EP arrives, finally, after they’ve been playing together in different bands over the
last decade and their official formation in 2015. Each member brings with them a remarkable
resume highlighting their session work—including a Grammy Award amongst them—with
artists like Maren Morris, Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors, Michael McDonald, Dr. John and
Brothers Osborne.

Today we are excited to premiere their new track “All Shine, No Silver” – streaming below! The track is instantly uplifting and thoroughly impressive. We could list out all the cool elements of the song, but we’ll let you experience it fresh below and simply say this…it’s a damn fun listen.
 
 
In their own words:

“One of my favorite songwriting tactics is to contrast the sound of a song with its lyrical content. This song is about deception, subterfuge and vanity while, musically, it sounds more joyful and even celebratory in the choruses and outro. Are we celebrating the deception? Or laughing in the face of true danger? For me, it depends on the day, but hopefully the listener can make their own decision.”
