Louder Space Release “Lifted”

SLO’s alternative rock group Louder Space released their newest single, “Lifted.” It is the third and final single that the band announced earlier this year. This track is in time just for the summer and provides that great reggae/alt-rock sound that the band has mastered. The bass and drums maintain the rhythm while the guitar and vocals command the audience’s attention, bringing them through both relaxing and energetic sections, showcasing the band’s musical prowess.
