His latest release is ‘When The Honeymoon is Over’, a bossa nova track for the new age. Molded with romanticism and a lot of blues, the song casts a beautiful landscape.
Lilting acoustics are matched with wandering flute melodies, plush blues and loose Latin grooves. The artist’s interpretation of melancholy is nuanced, especially as it shows up in the instrumentals. Asian classical tabla beats and some oriental accents bring a whole new side to the bluesy acoustics. The vocals detail the heartache with both simplicity and hyperbole. Ebbing and flowing as he details the loneliness and emptiness in a disconnected relationship. Listen Now!
