Henry Green's “Barcelona” is a haunting slab of smooth R&B
Building from some fairly hefty online support - it doesn’t get much bigger than the Kygo treatment right now - and slots with the likes of Woman's Hour at our Best Fit residency early in the year, Henry Green has revealed a new single-proper; a stunning, elegant outing that sets a serious marker for its EP to come.
Aligning himself with Aquilo and R I T U A L, the teenage Bristolian utilises simple reverberating production, lead by warm guitar lines and a wash of gentle synths, clicks and heart-beating bass kicks to create a recipe for heavenly smooth R&B.
And there’s more; Green is blessed with a gorgeous vocal tone that pours out effortlessly over this intricate backing: “If I could find a way?/If I could make myself stay?” he muses longingly with a deftness that both intrigues and unwinds.
