Australian singer/songwriter Lawson Hull combines folk music and pop to create the dream-sound he’s known for. Drawing inspiration from artists like Bon Iver to Bombay Bicycle Club, Lawson’s songs land in the sonic midst of many fellow Australian artists such as Kita Alexanda, Angus and Julia Stone and #1 Dads. On his song "Wanna Be with You," Lawson says, "I feel like writing a love song never gets old, although, this song is more about the whirlwind of first-encounters. Yes, they’re easy to write and can’t really go wrong, but the best love songs put you in the scene, like it’s about the listener. If you can show a sense of earnestness and paint the picture of growing old with your lover, I think you’ve done a good thing. You want people to believe it’s real, so you thread specific memories throughout the song." "Writing this with Riley Pearce, we wanted people to feel the rush of young love and adventure, but have the undertone of old love, as if you can see where it’s going in the long run," he continues. "Two lovers meet on a night out, dancing and watching the band. They get wrapped up in each other and decide to venture off into the night, swim in the cold and watch a sunrise. The chorus is a long shot, like the main character is getting ahead of themselves, but I’d prefer to think they’re saying it quietly to themselves - like, this is special. By the time the bridge comes around I get the feeling a whole summer has gone by. The song might come across very linear, but to me I hear it differently all the time and I hope every person that hears it interprets it differently." The song aims to be nostalgic with tapy acoustics and warm electric guitars. The drums are muted and boxy in moments to give a feel of being in a vacuum with someone else and nothing else matters.
