Natalie Jean and Rory Gardiner recently dropped “Not Over You”, written by Rory, and produced by Jeremy Fisher. This is an up-tempo and urgent Americana anthem, which as the title suggests, deals with a past love that you just can’t get out of your mind.

No one quite sounds like Natalie and Rory – he’s got a sure-footed country twang, she’s got a soulful rasp. If there were two unlikely voices that were meant to be together, it is these two.

With “Not Over You”, we have an interesting juxtaposition between the uplifting, and driving summery melody, and the rather regretful lyrics of someone not being able to forget a broken relationship.

The vocals really shine, while the instrumentation and production by Jeremy Fisher on this track, is so deliciously infectious, you will be playing it again and again, and probably be picturing a live version of Natalie and Rory singing together.

This song is an attention grabber with the title alone, but Natalie Jean and Rory Gardiner really know how to bring believable feelings to their music and they sing as if they mean every word. “Not Over You” is a beautifully polished piece of work with moments of great depth and meaning, which will delight fans far and wide.

The result is, hands down, one of the best Americana duet songs of 2020, and one both Natalie Jean and Rory Gardiner can be extremely proud of.
