“Afraid of the Dark” is a dynamic anthem with a retro vibe. Jones’s strong vocals lead the track and communicate directly from the soul. The sound is driven by a powerful melody and hook with classic synth tones and a steady groove. Lyrically, Jones is observant of the world around him and studies the ways different people collide, using what he has learned to spread a message of love and the desire to reach a better understanding. This song tries to honestly recognize the reason for some of the world’s problems, ultimately leading toward a peaceful solution. This track is a beautiful display on how music and a message can bring people together. You can listen to “Afraid of the Dark” and follow Evan Taylor Jones on the links below.
