4) Very few rock bands are capable of wowing people right out of the gate. It usually starts with a half recorded demo here, another half recorded demo there, empty bars, empty promises and then you finally get to the good stuff.
In February 2011, four young men who were tired of such a pattern gathered in an empty church to discuss their dreams, aspirations and what they were going to do about it. The idea was to create the music they've always wanted, spend all the money they had and make the best music they've ever been apart of.
The group enlisted producer Michael Rossback to help them craft the sounds that they were striving for and to help the songs come to life. "The whole thing was a big experiment. None of us had worked with a producer before and the biggest thing was, the band had yet to even play music together in a room." says Aaron Wagner, the groups frontman, "when we got to Rossback we had only laid ideas down piece by piece in a computer, never anything more. Rossback would then make us play everything as a live band when we arrived at his house and that's when things came to life. There was a chemistry and sense of trust between us all."
August rolled around and after months of working, Medic had finished their first EP. Five songs that had stolen the very breath away from all who would hear and with a developed sound that felt like they had been around for 10 years, the band started to play around the Denver area with the intent to stun the audience. They are succeeding. Bassist Drew Barnard explains: "We went in to this just wanting to make music with hope. Music that made people feel like they were understood and the shows feel like that; like we are reaching an understanding between us and the audience that hope is alive and well."
"In the midst of the trials that we go through these days, I think we are just tired of the same old. Anyone can make art these days. It's so accessible to make and promote and yet most of it is so negative. It was wearing on us. Medic is about something new, we are about creating a community of thinkers, dreamers and believers that aim for something positive. This world will continue to fall apart if we keep talking about how it's falling apart. But what if we dare to be the people to figure out ways to put things back together? That's our platform. That maybe our music can be apart of someones healing process and spread from there." says Aaron.
So maybe it is time for something new. New songs to sing, new dreams to dream. Maybe Medic is formed out of four guys who might be what we call idealists. But maybe it's time for us to leave the cynicism behind and begin to embrace hope.
Maybe it's time for a new beginning. Let us welcome, Medic.
5) MEDIC is a three piece indie pop band from Nashville, TN, with a sound that is the result of various sources of inspiration together with an artistic vision and creativity that stands out from the rest. Their sound is reminiscent of stadium concerts by big artists such as Coldplay, while their lyrics are an interesting blend of honesty and abstract expression. In this case, their most recent song “Wander” features a pop sound that is not like what you’d imagine a pop song to sound like. Apart from this, the production aspect of the song makes it stand out from the rest even more. With a polished radio friendly sound this song is ready for a great success.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the long way never adds up much
It's a pitfall and baby we're out of touch
We are the ones who run on the wire
The kids who know what they think they want
We seen it all but we know it's amateur love
You're a road that never leads to home
And my feet they love to wander
My feet they love to wander
And i know i've never been more wrong
But my heart can't wait much longer
It was you that made me stronger
We talk in vein about all the reasons
You wait here until there's a hint to drop
Then make a run for it till it's time to stop
And then our love came down with the fever
You stay away but you know I'm burning up
I reach for you but you're too cold to touch
Its a fight till the bitter end
I let you go, you pull me back again
I hear your voice inside my head
But it's only pretend
The song "Wander" by Medic is a deeply emotional song that explores the theme of love and the journey that the singer goes through after a love gone wrong. It begins with a feeling of aimlessness and confusion – "we never seem to know where we're going" – and a sense that all their wandering and searching doesn't seem to lead them anywhere. The singer then reflects on their relationship, which seems to have been full of false starts, misunderstandings, and amateur love. The lyrics suggest that the singer and their partner were never really on the same page, and that their love was always somewhat out of touch.
The second verse of the song continues this theme, with the singer referencing their love as a "road that never leads to home." They know that they were wrong to pursue this relationship, but their heart can't help but continue to yearn for the other person. The chorus is particularly impactful, with the repeated line "my feet they love to wander" driving home the idea that the singer is always searching, always looking for something more. This is in stark contrast to the other person, who seems content to wait until the moment is right to make their move.
The final part of the song delves into the aftermath of the relationship. The love that was once so intense has now "come down with the fever," and the singer finds themselves reaching out for something that is no longer there. They know that they need to let go, but they can't resist the pull of their heart, even if it leads them down a path that they know is doomed to fail. The final line, "but it's only pretend," is a painful admission that the love they shared is no longer real, and that they are holding on to something that no longer exists.
