ATLANTA – It’s a powerful plea tinged with desperation. “Won’t somebody save me?”

Reed Waddle’s latest release “Save Me” encompasses thoughts, emotions, and personal demons many of us feel in the wake of the covid crisis. Born in the midst of the pandemic, “Save Me” is the haunting, but honest take from the award-winning singer songwriter alongside producer and cowriter Jordan Frye.

“Sometimes you know you need help, but you are too afraid to ask for it,” explained Waddle. “The most powerful aspects of music are hope and healing.”

The talented bicoastal duo weave that raw message into an infectious melody by mixing gospel roots with pop sensibilities. Waddle’s compelling vocals combined with Frye’s impressive soundscape give way to their instantly soulful anthem.

“Everybody needs saving in some way,” Waddle says with a slight smile. “Whether you save yourself or you believe in a higher power or you have someone you love. That’s the message.”

Raised along the sunny shores in Destin, Florida, Waddle took his talents across the country supporting artists such as Hall and Oats, John Fogerty, Graham Nash, Jason Isbell, Shawn Colvin, and countless others. The Telluride Troubadour Grand Prize winner racked up awards before landing in Nashville. Now, the prolific songwriter has more than 40 songs cut by various artists and his music has topped the charts in Australia.

But “Save Me” is Waddle’s most honest and personal release to date.

“Save Me” is available on all streaming platforms on Nov. 11. For more about Reed Waddle and his music, visit his website: reedwaddlemusic.com.
