Sometimes it's surprising how a band can have success just through the internet. In times of streaming everything seems to be possible.

| exPorter are happy that the song "Letting Go" gets so much attention. |
This phenomenon happened to the alternative rock band exPorter. Just read what the band themselves said about how it all came together when they worked on the new song "Letting Go".
"Letting Go’ is a song that we had done with our friends in Let Flo Go. They're a band that started out in Santa Barbara like us, and Kylen and I started messing around with a couple songs. We started doing ‘Letting Go’ in our exPorter sets and it really went well. We started doing a more "exPorter" version so when we were recording our last EP (New Rubber Girlfriend) we really wanted to add a full band version of that song. It took off really quickly on streaming sites, started getting radio play, and for some weird reason became really popular for us in South America."
For me it's one of those songs that catches you quickly from the start. The song builds up step by step. In the beginning it's a soft and small rhythm and fine melody but things quickly start to grow when more punchy guitar riffs come into play and the rough section converts it into something heavier.
Happily it falls a bit back into the dreamlike formula with the next verse. The heavyness comes back into play every here and there but it never becomes too hard.
Let's see how the band moves on further. You can follow them on Facebook and most of all enjoy the music on Spotify (and become a constant listener).
