Chicago Music Expert Praises Reeve Stimpson’s ‘Too Late’ 

Stimpson, a Nashville-based singer-songwriter, is no stranger to the show’s listeners. Woloszyk first discovered him in May 2024 through TikTok, where a teaser video for his song One Night Stand—featuring a playful homage to the film Risky Business—quickly captured attention. Sliding across his living room floor in sunglasses and an oversized shirt, guitar in hand, Stimpson struck an instantly iconic chord with viewers, particularly Gen X fans nostalgic for the golden age of pop.

According to Woloszyk, that moment marked the beginning of her admiration for an artist whose music blends modern pop sensibilities with unmistakable 1980s DNA. “Reeve’s genuine love for the music and culture of the ’80s shines through in everything he does,” she noted, crediting him with creating some of the most compelling contemporary pop infused with retro flair.

Too Late continues that tradition. Described by Woloszyk as “nothing short of fun and upbeat,” the track delivers a catchy chorus, an infectious groove, and—true to form—a saxophone solo that feels like a heartfelt nod to classic pop radio. While firmly rooted in nostalgia, the song maintains a fresh, modern edge that appeals to both longtime music lovers and a younger generation discovering the era’s sound for the first time.

“This track is a total bop,” Woloszyk said, adding that Stimpson is “an artist born in the wrong generation.” She believes Too Late would have easily found a home on Top of the Pops or Casey Kasem’s American Top 40, had it been released decades earlier.

Woloszyk has followed Stimpson’s steady rise closely and is confident his trajectory points toward mainstream success. “It’s only a matter of time before Reeve Stimpson becomes a household name,” she said.

With a spring tour on the horizon, Stimpson is encouraging fans to spread the word and request shows in their local areas. He remains highly engaged with his audience through regular live performances and requests on TikTok, alongside active updates on Facebook and Instagram.

As the segment wrapped, Woloszyk didn’t hide her enthusiasm. She revealed she had already downloaded the single and added it to her own playlist, eagerly anticipating listener reactions. Officially introducing the track to the audience, she declared Too Late the Ginger and Nuts Show’s Single of the Week, inviting fans worldwide to tune in and enjoy.

Judging by the cheers that followed, Reeve Stimpson’s latest release may be right on time after all.
