“Over It,” the lead single from Michael Barrow & the Tourists’ upcoming album “HAPPY,” is a track that instantly hooks listeners with its raw, indie-folk rock energy. The band has masterfully blended the organic folk textures from their earlier work with the grit of indie rock, creating a sound reminiscent of Sam’s Town-era The Killers and early James Bay. The song moves with an uptempo, dusty rhythm that feels both nostalgic and fresh offering something familiar yet distinct for fans of this genre.

“Over It” feels grounded, with its rootsy soundscape driven by Michael Barrow’s compelling vocals and emotive guitar work. The keys, handled by Zach Collier, add a layer of atmospheric depth, giving the song a lush, cinematic quality. Meanwhile, Mac Wright’s lead guitar injects energy and precision, accentuating the song’s anthemic moments, while Alessandro Improta’s bass provides a steady, resonant foundation. Reed Perkins’ drums pulse throughout, driving the song forward. As a lead single, it sets the tone perfectly for what fans can expect from their 2025 album.
