“See You Around” by Verticoli is the kind of track that instantly welcomes you in with warmth and emotional honesty. It’s easy to sense the band’s confidence and heart as the song flows with soft guitar lines, mellow rhythms, and a melody that feels both hopeful and nostalgic at the same time. The Tasmanian trio shape an atmosphere that’s open and genuine, giving listeners a glimpse into those bittersweet moments when two people care deeply yet find themselves walking different paths in life.
The vocals come across sincere and steady, supported by a rhythm section that never tries to overpower. The guitars shimmer lightly, and the drums keep things grounded, letting every line breathe naturally. The lyric “You’re heading up, I’m coming down, still, it’s nice to see you around” captures the emotional center of the song perfectly. It’s simple, heartfelt, and relatable, resonating with anyone who has felt the quiet ache of letting go while wishing the best for someone else.
What really stands out here is how effortlessly the band balances reflective songwriting with easygoing indie rock charm. “See You Around” doesn’t shout for attention; it draws you in with its calm sincerity and emotional depth. The production stays spacious, allowing each instrument to shine in its own light, echoing influences like Tom Petty and Kurt Vile without ever feeling imitative. I think this might be Verticoli’s most heartfelt single so far. I genuinely enjoyed how authentic and emotionally grounded it is.

Their sound continues to grow in richness and honesty, and this song is a perfect entry point into their evolving artistry.
