Dalton Mauldin and Candor land “that’s how it goes” with the kind of ease that makes a fresh find feel instantly familiar. Two minutes in, it already sounds like the track everyone is supposed to know.
The production keeps things tight: clean percussion, bright guitar lines, and a vocal that sits close enough to catch every shrug and sigh. Nothing feels crowded, and that restraint gives the chorus a polished snap.
So when the afternoon heat starts sticking to the windows and the playlist needs a reset, this one fits fast. It carries the exact mix of polish and melancholy that makes a parking-lot singalong feel oddly necessary.
