In the dingy basement of a Seattle house meant for two (and shared by five) Carey Rayburn started writing music as an escape from his directionless career as a trumpet sideman. “Writing my own music gave me something I could control in my life, something that was mine.”

But it wasn’t until a friend introduced him to the new sounds of a music style called electro swing filtering in from Europe that Rayburn found a real direction for his creativity.

A huge fan of electronica and jazz, the electro swing hybrid was a perfect fit for Rayburn. And having spent so many nights playing jazz, rock, salsa, and classical music in Seattle, he knew just who to call to assemble the band that would go on to become Good Co, the United States’ first live electro swing band.

Big Takeover is pleased to host the premiere of the high-energy and good-times video for “Come Alive,” a jumpin’ cut off Good Co’s upcoming album, So Pretty. The LP arrives to liven up your days on June 5th.

The band members go for the celebratory gusto in their dynamic performance video, which is shot in rich black and white. The band members are dressed to party, showing off some luxe style with their crisp suits and a spangled, swingin’ dress on the lead singer.

In these dark times, it’s a relief to find upbeat music and uplifting spirits that lighten up the mood. This tune and video clip get the mindset and body groovin’ with joyful oomph.
