Follow No One Rocks on “Bring Me Peace”
When a song earns four stars from Digital Journal and gets called “mid‑tempo, edgy and liberating,” you know it’s more than just another single. Bring Me Peace is exactly that — a track that captures the raw, vulnerable side of Follow No One while still delivering the kind of retro‑rock punch that keeps fans coming back.
The review, written by Markos Papadatos, praised the song as “extremely radio‑friendly” with “lyrics that are pure poetry.” That balance — accessibility without compromise — is what makes Bring Me Peace stand out. It’s not afraid to be both powerful and personal, a combination that defines the duo’s sound.
For Rich Hall and Pedro Murino Almeida, this release came on the heels of winning Rock Duo/Group of the Year at the 2019 Josie Music Awards. That recognition wasn’t just a trophy moment — it was proof that their trans‑Atlantic collaboration had carved out a lane of its own.
What makes Bring Me Peace resonate is its honesty. It doesn’t hide behind overproduction or gimmicks. Instead, it leans into the duo’s strengths: Rich’s commanding vocals and Pedro’s guitar work that feels both classic and fresh. The result is a song that feels like it could live on a modern rock playlist or slip seamlessly into a setlist alongside the greats.
