If there is one thing Gavin Marengi is good at, it is taking a feeling and spinning it into something you can’t help but feel in your bones. His new single, “Restless Legs,” is a lush blend of country and Americana. The song is a slow-burning verse to longing, freedom, and that wild feeling you get when the road calls your name and home no longer feels like home. Marengi’s voice bears the brunt of the narrative, as if a battered pickup weren’t rambling down a length of highway. There’s nothing over-polished here, and that’s its beauty.
In his delivery, you can almost feel the gravel crunching beneath his boots and the wind in his face as he sings of the restlessness that only the young and soul-hungry will ever fully comprehend. “Restless Legs” is a vibe and a memory for anyone who’s been filed away, staring at the map of where they’d rather be. Faced with lyrics that cut through noise and melodies that feel like they were born between open skies, it isn’t hard to see how this song is making itself at home on playlists like Fresh Folk, New Americana, and Emerging Country.
It resonates with hard workers, strivers, and those who understand that sometimes pushing ahead is all one can do. Marengi is a storyteller, one with a clear voice, an honest pen, and a gift for catching the raw stuff of life. “Restless Legs” is not begging for attention. It earns it. With each chord and lyric, he welcomes you into his world, and once you’re in, it’s hard to leave it. If you’re barreling down rural roads, Gavin Marengi’s “Restless Legs” is a drive well worth taking.
