J.J. Chamberlain has been beforehand featured on It is All Indie, and for good causes too. Only a few days in the past noticed him reveal the festive EP, “Let’s Fall Out For Christmas”. The discharge is simply three tracks lengthy however will definitely offer you a trio of songs that can be capable to stick round with you for a lot of Christmases to return.
The EP has actually simply dropped this morning, however that simply means you can take pleasure in it extra earlier than the lots take part.
The opening monitor is the title monitor, it is a quite upbeat affair along with his mild and ethereal vocals as soon as once more adorning the monitor. The acoustic guitar combined in with the piano tones actually helps to maintain the sound grounded, and people delicate ball chimes are an actual pleasure too – it is not a festive tune with out one thing like that happening.
Subsequent up is “Bored with Christmas (2024)”, a extra mellow tune with an Americana-feeling tone reducing in, extra laid again and is clearly a winner for me for once we’re opening the presents, as I too shall be feeling a bit drained from the evening earlier than (as I am British and we love a pub drink the evening earlier than).
Closing off the short-but-sweet EP is “Curmudgeon”, the shortest monitor on the discharge, however that doesn’t imply it is not impactful. It is received a mighty guitar wafting its manner in entrance of you, feeling nearly like a track by Pixies. It is a good change of tempo and is as soon as once more an ideal instance of what J.J. Chamberlain is all about.
