There's something disarmingly sincere about a song that just wants you to feel good. No irony, no hedge, just an open hand extended toward some hope in this world. That's exactly what Rhode Island multi-instrumentalist Mike Denardo delivers with "Aim High," his latest single, released July 10th, 2026, and easily one of the most quietly affecting singles to land this summer.
Denardo has spent the better part of four decades in and around music, first as part of a longtime recording collective and now stepping fully into the spotlight as a solo artist. That experience shows in every measure of "Aim High," a track that feels less like a debut swing and more like the confident exhale of someone who's been honing his craft for a lifetime. Written, in Denardo's own words, as a "feel good" song meant to remind listeners to never let go of their dreams, the track wears its intentions on its sleeve.
