French singer and guitarist Nicolas Willot pairs a likable organic groove with smooth melodies and quirky, raspy canned vocals, for a poetic and compelling take on contemporary blues-rock.
Adopting a classic style and reinventing it somewhat, the subtle production and songwriting of Story of an Erratic work beafiuflly in unison, captivating lyrically throughout, in a modest way, and also holding strong to a superb guitar-led groove, with a simple but wonderful bassline and beat.
The song briefly stops and re-starts, creating a mild level of anticipation, and the drop back into the groove afterwards is perfect. Then there’s the story, the quietly expressive images and scenes, the ideas, all showcasing the thoughtful artistry and commitment of Willot as a contemporary artist and performer.
