Review: Full Circle - Good Health Good Wealth

Released 4th October 2024

Good Health Good Wealth are a London based duo comprised of Bruce Breakey & Simon Kuzmickas, and they’re gaining some serious traction. There are hints of so many genres in their

music and it’s a testament to their talent. Pulling on vocal styles of Mike Skinner & Baxter Drury, and inspiration from visionaries like N.E.R.D & Daft Punk. All whilst maintaining this full-fronted Britishness.

‘Full Circle’ is a beautiful narration on the everyday life and thoughts of a human being in the UK. From the moment I heard the opening hook and UK Garage-esque drum break, I was hooked. I seriously must’ve played it on repeat about 8 times.

There are moments of humour and seriousness in equal-measure. The vocal delivery seems nonchalant but you can tell there’s so much energy and meaning behind every line.

A visualisation for the track has been released on YouTube a couple of weeks ago, a simple concept but again, very well thought through and purposeful. Watch it here:

You can listen through their back-catalogue and be continually surprised at the direction they’ve taken. ‘Gils Dilemma (Everyone Feels Like This)’ for example, has the aura of a main stage festival banger that you could lose your head to on some beans in the sun. ‘Snatch’ feels like an grungy indie-club-night bop. And ‘Gold’ flips the script again with it’s wailing guitar licks and glorious, rhythmic Tame Impala-style vocals.

It’s no wonder this pair have been picked up by John Kennedy of Radio X’s X-Posure Daily show, amongst others. They played last year’s Truck Festival, they’ve sold out headline shows and been on tour with Hard-Fi and The Sherlocks. With their new single ‘The Cafe’ out on 31st January, they’re kicking off the year with a bang and I’m super excited to see what these boys throw out in 2025.
