Livingmore decided to take the odd experiences and sounds emitting from from their LA apartment neighbor and spin it into a song. ‘Resident Psycho’ is a gritty Alt Pop/Rock track with some old school psychedelic vibes layered in.

“Rock and Roll has always been about rebellious defiance with a sultry side dish of sinful sexuality to sell it. Who better to deliver both than a band called Sidepiece RVA?
Their single, ‘Never’ comes in with that in your face classic rock guitar and then adds in alluring vocals that lean heavily on that sexy defiance. The lead vocalist taunts and teases with her sultry brand of ... you lost me and now you’ll regret the things you did or didn’t do until he end of time.
The guitar does heavy work here and sets the tone early without overshadowing before an understated solo that sprinkles some extra magic with a 90s grunge type vibe. Though overall, the musical tone and vocal style feels more like classic and timeless Rock and Roll ”
