EBSON marries militaristic drums with soulful vocals on “Red”
“Red”, the new single from London-based soul singer EBSON, sounds like something lifted from a modern remake of Les Misérables - in a good way!
You can easily imagine revolutionaries hoisting a tatty flag whilst the regimental drums and heartfelt refrain of “We bleed red” echoes amongst their ranks. EBSON’s vocal channels the same richness and depth as fellow London soul maestro Rationale, with music that moves away from the electro side of things in a more piano-led direction.
"I think we've all had times where an amazing relationship starts to fall apart,” EBSON explains of the track’s inspiration. Noo matter how hard you try, deep down you both know, despite everything, you're not good for each other. But typically we keep it going, blinded by past feelings and it becomes a battle where no-one ever wins. Red is all about painting that raw picture of conflict and struggle we go through to finally let it go."
