A brilliantly gritty take on modern RnB that’s sure to bring together classic & alternative fans of the genre alike.
Bend is a superb debut, immediately warming & indicative of a band who genuinely love making music.
Along with entrancing & frankly stunning performances, the songwriting is second to none, and the acoustic guitar work reflects & enhances the growing emotions in a perfectly fitting way.
The way tiiiger has managed to fuse so many different building blocks into something that flows so naturally is superb. A creative at his best.
The vocals are stunning at every step – the more they gather & intertwine, the more hypnotic the experience becomes.
Purchla’s lyrics are fascinating – the scene he sets, the story he tells, the gore & the observations, the other & the self – all of this is captivating.
Fusing historical knowledge with real-time possibilities & accounts from today’s world – using his skills & creative endeavors to point out flaws in our society & to inspire positive change & togetherness.
Think riots at a carnival or circus, immense pain mixed in with ignorant bliss & energetic joy, all connected & confused – uncertain what the future really holds.
The songs pour through with their own sense of style, a certain fusion of genres, endless levels of passion & wonderful lyricism.
There’s something unbelievably personal & revealing about this particular track that effectively leads A Cat Named Felix down some new, previously undiscovered pathway.
This collaboration from Jae Douglass & Blake Wisner is a fast-working ear-worm that comes through loaded with soul & passion – on a level that isn’t found all too often in modern music.
