Trickshooter Social Club - Television
Television by Trickshooter Social Club is a fizzy, genre-hopping pop gem that feels like flipping through your favourite channels but landing on something delightfully unpredictable. It’s as if the band decided to invite pop, country, and folk over for cocktails, with a splash of whisky to keep things honest. Television is pure ear candy, wrapped in the band's signature country with a splash of pop vibe. The instrumentation is a tapestry of fuzzy guitars, jaunty rhythms, and layers that build without overstuffing. There's a crispness to the production that gives the song an addictive replay value. The track has a huge layer of nostalgia that keeps you going back for more, and it has a lot to do with the texture of the sounds that they’ve incorporated. Lyrically, Trickshooter Social Club doesn’t disappoint. True to their “oddly literate” style, the song juggles clever imagery and sly commentary, nodding to the hypnotic allure of screens while hinting at deeper, bittersweet truths beneath the surface. It’s the kind of songwriting that feels equally at home in a dimly lit bar or blasting from your car radio on a summer drive. Vocally, the delivery strikes a perfect balance between world-weary yet hopeful, like a grizzled storyteller who’s seen it all but still knows how to have a good laugh. That sense of redemption—the thread that runs through much of their work—pulses just under the surface, giving the song emotional weight without turning heavy-handed. You can hear the song in a series like Malcolm In The Middle as an outro. Television is a vibrant reminder of Trickshooter Social Club’s versatility. It’s country, it’s rock, and it’s got some rizz; it’s basically everything you didn’t know you needed in under four minutes.
