<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ryan Shaw is out with an R&;B anthem called &#8220;Love In Pain.&#8221; Co-written over Zoom with Rob Thomas and Derek Trucks, this song proves that a great song could be written through technology and far apart. The pandemic is not stopping the creative process. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Love In Pain&#8221; features a catchy hook melody, a soulful vocal, and memorable bluesy guitar riffs all the way through. It is well-produced, each instrumentation and vocal serving a specific purpose to boost the songs likability. Gospel-style background vocals add another element of soulfulness to the recording as well. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Lyrically the song explores the relationship of pain and love, and how they often exist at the same time. It&#8217;s a tough but important lesson to learn. Judging by the emotion in the vocal delivery, it seems evident that the songwriters are drawing from personal experience. </p>
