Fritz Gambit has returned to form with their new single “Watch The Edge”. The upbeat song offers perspective and place through its lyrics and production. The band, which now includes four members: Vocalist Rodney Alan, Rhythm Guitar/Harmony Bob Schroeder, Lead Guitar/Bass Kirby Fitzgerald, and Drummer David Hall, has created a warm, communal sound with a purposeful focus.
From the outset, “Watch The Edge” delivers an easygoing vibe because of the chemistry present in classic bands. The instrumentation is bright and colourful while maintaining steady driving rhythms and guitar lines that feel both new and comfortable. Throughout the song, you can feel the motion of Lewes's coastal areas and the openness of the Delaware beach.
While the phrase “watch the edge” may seem a lighthearted statement at first glance, it actually holds many layers of meaning, including cautionary elements about being aware of your limits or edges while having fun. Rodney's delivery of this line is done in such a way that he sounds comes across as honest and friendly.
