The Reflections are Tim & Dan McGuigan — twin brothers hailing from the East Village, NYC. Their music lives at the crossroads of the natural and the spiritual, the grounded and the transcendent. Through sunny guitars, layered harmonies, and lyrical honesty, The Reflections explore a shared journey with the listener toward something deeper.
On their new single, The Reflections piece together a warm welcome home parade for fond memories and our youthful glow as they ask the world to remember their “Inner Child.” The plush, infectious single is a moving anthem that urges us all to take a step back and remember how happy the simple things in life once made us. The dense, lush vocals act as our favorite childhood toy, bringing back memories that helped shape who we are, while the warping synths and quaint arrangement serve as our anchor back to modern times. “Inner Child” is more than a feel-good pop song to help us forget about modern strife; it is a testament to the power of our minds when used properly. The Reflections are not asking us to revert to child-like antics; they simply want us all to maintain a sense of self in today’s hustle and bustle. “Inner Child” is a moving modern pop marvel with soaring vocals that deliver a heartfelt message for those who need it, and those who didn’t realize they did.
“This song encourages the listener to revisit when they were younger — when they believed in their bones they could impact and change the world for the better. For many, society has had a way of suppressing and snuffing out this hope,” explains the duo. “This song encourages the listener to reclaim the core aspect of their being, defined by pure heart and intention — and to reconnect with their inner child.”
