Jay Jay Pistolet - Happy Birthday To You EP

Happy Birthday To You EP by Jay Jay Pistolet

TRACKLISTING:
1.    HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU
2.    BAGS OF GOLD
3.    HOOKED UP ON US
4.    I’M ALWAYS ON MY WAY BACK HOME
 
ALTHOUGH INHERENTLY PART OF THE BURGEONING UK FOLK SCENE, 21 YEAR OLD JUSTIN HAYWARD YOUNG STANDS APART AS ARTIST. HIS BALMY, SOULFUL VOICE HAS A TIMELESS AND DISTINCTIVE SOUND AND ALTHOUGH HIS SOUND BORROWS FROM THE PAST, HIS SONGWRITING IS VERY CURRENT. FROM THE SENSIBILITIES OF EARLY BEACH BOYS TO THE SULTRY ATMOSPHERICS OF SERGE GAINSBOURG AND FRANCE GALL, JUSTIN’S MUSICAL REFERENCE POINTS EMERGE IN HIS SONGS WITH ABSOLUTE SUBTLETY AND A DEFINITE TWIST OF HIS OWN.

PRODUCED BY CHARLIE FINK (OF NOAH & THE WHALE), HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU AND HOOKED ON US HAVE AN INTIMACY AND GLOWING FEEL OF YOUTHFUL ABANDON WHILST BAGS OF GOLD IS A HARMONY-LADEN, SUN SOAKED GEM AND EP CLOSER ALWAYS ON MY MIND HAS A DREAMLIKE FEEL.


4...according to .

it's such a beautiful alt.country / folk record... and he's just 21! for the fans of Johhny Flynn, Noah & The Whale, My Morning Jacket, Fleet Foxes or The Low Lows.. catch him/them live, they are fab! can't imagine people not liking this record

Rating: 4 out of 5
