different drum - final single before full album release
Different Drum, the final single from The Orion Experience’s upcoming album, COSMICOVERS has a special meaning to the band. When lead singers Linda XO and Orion Simprini met in college, Different Drum was the first song that they learned to sing together at the campus coffee house. Little did they know that this collaboration would eventually lead to a prolific career in music. Originally written by the brilliant Michael Nesmith of The Monkees, and made famous by Linda Ronstadt, Different Drum has been reworked with a groovy 1990’s Manchester beat, and sparkling, rhythmic electric guitars. Linda XO takes center stage with her unmistakable vocal performance that also has its roots in a special memory. As a child, Linda XO would sing this song so often, that her Grandmother gave her the nickname “Linda Ronstadt.”
Different Drum is now available on all digital platforms.
