Archie Faulks – Blackout
Archie Faulks - Blackout
Release Date: Out Now
A song of this raw and swelling emotion is a rare and
beautiful thing in its own right but to come from a young man with such a
stunning voice makes this a collector’s item. London based Archie Faulks may
look and sound like a Victorian ne’er-do-well but new single ‘Blackout’ shows
his tender and vulnerable side from the very beginning with immediate opening
line “I’d like to be wherever you are, I hate this distance” signposting the
heartache. Some gentle and subtle musicianship does its job of swelling the
emotion without detracting from the cracked beauty of Faulks’ voice. This could
go in the Morrison or Nutini direction for sure but there’s still time to dodge
the ‘housewives favourite’ slice of the Venn diagram.
