Jacob Riddall – Ready

| Jacob Riddall - Ready |
Release Date: 19th January 2018
Solo male singer-songwriters have
been in strong form early in 2018 but this latest offering by Westcountry troubadour
Jacob Riddall is already pulling ahead of the pack. Forthcoming single ‘Ready’
starts off with a fairly run of the mill of acoustic licks but then Riddall’s
voice slides in softly all calm tones and confessional whispers. This is the
sound of a man with nothing left to give but honesty and his heart, the way you
feel at 3 in the morning when you’re having those end of relationship talks through
red eyes and wine breath. Just after the two-minute mark comes a fractured and
fragmented Banjo melody and woozy electro drone that lift this to Noah
Gundersen meets Luke Sital-Singh levels of inspiration. By the time this track
winds up, you’re left feeling humbled, drained and maybe a little cleansed too.
All in all, a pretty strong start to the year.
