I’ve spilled a copious amount of virtual ink covering the remarkably prolific Israeli-born, Costa Rican-based singer/songwriter, musician and JOVM mainstay MAGON over the past few years.
Earlier this year, the JOVM mainstay released his eighth album The Writing’s On The Wall, an album that’s a bit of a return to form that saw him continuing to push his sound in new directions: According to the JOVM mainstay, the material is a fusion of hallucinogenic re-imaginings of 70s soft rock, oddball outsider jams and laid-back indie fare.
Continuing upon his reputation for being remarkably prolific, the Israeli-born, Costa Rican-based artist will be releasing his ninth album later this year. The album’s first single “The Wedding Song” is a 70s Laurel Canyon/AM Radio rock jam anchored around shimmering guitars, a shuffling yet propulsive rhythm, a glistening and soulful guitar solo paired with MAGON’s long-held penchant for catchy hooks. Under the slick and seemingly effortless craftsmanship is a song that’s a contented sigh of one, who after much effort has found true, long-lasting love.
The song marks the one-year anniversary of MAGON’s wedding to his now-wife Alexa, and is dedicated to their love.
Filmed by MAGON’s wife Alexa at Establo San Rafael, Costa Rica, the video features a couple — Emily and Raymond Ulibarri — having a sweetly romantic moment, dancing to the song.
