Louis The Child releases a lyric video for their “Too Close” single featuring Wrabel

Louis The Child (Robby Hauldren and Freddy Kennett) is an electronic duo from Chicago, Illinois. Not too long ago, they released a lyric video for their “Too Close” single featuring Wrabel.

Louis The Child – “Too Close” featuring Wrabel

“We used to say, ‘Maybe one day there’d be more to this friendship.’ But we always say sh*t like, ‘At 45, if we’re both single, I’d get you that diamond and propose at that diner.’ We say it as a joke but honestly, it gets to me and everybody knows. We’ve been like this since ’17 and I don’t let you know. It kills me every time he takes you home.” – lyrics

‘Too Close’ tells an interesting tale of a young guy who shares a platonic friendship with a special person in his life. Apparently, he wants him and his friend to be more than just friends. But them becoming lovers seems too complicated because the desired person is currently involved in a committed relationship with someone else.

‘Too Close’ contains a relatable storyline, which draws deep emotional power from the dreamy vocals of LA-based singer-songwriter Wrabel. The likable tune begins in soulful, stripped-back intimacy before bursting into a high-energy dance tune. With its haunting guitar tones and glossed-up beats, the track follows Louis The Child’s acclaimed EP, entitled, “Kids at Play”.
