Dreamy guitar play, smooth vibes, live drums and enchanting harmonies – Captain Highside sets the vibe beautifully, with the organic and impassioned I Can’t See.
Noting short lines and distant vocals creating a sort of intimate shoegaze-songwriting vibe, I Can’t See acts as something of a looping groove and sentiment – the guitar sounding sublime and somehow both modest and impressive, the vocals high-passion but quietly mixed.
It’s a colourful and thoughtful set-up, and it introduces the artist in a way that slowly but surely strengthens his appeal as a modern creative. The bassline, the reverb, the reflectional lyrics – its a winning combination, and very easy to relax into and escape from the weight of the world amidst.
