"James" - Now Available
James is a sad indie rock song primarily about regret over inaction to mend a relationship that breaks up slowly over time. This is encapsulated in the lines...
“Should have woken up long ago
Grasped the nettle and never let go
Disregard, led us down these sunless roads”
The track features an intricate bass line, energetic drums, melodic guitar, a swirling synth and a hybrid harp (a cross between a harp and a piano) playing motifs and solos. Soaring above all this is the melancholic and haunting voice of Inês Rebelo.
"James” has had a great reception from the music media....

“I really love this sound, it's full and rich and dramatic with an intense atmosphere. I especially like how intimate and comfortable the track feels, it's quite a beautiful experience. “
Bruna Antenore of RocknBold
“The delicate vocals reinforce the fragility of the subject matter, but at the same time soothe bruised hearts and those who have experienced this kind of narrative. The song has an ethereal tone and a certain reminiscence of the dark rock/pop of the 90s, but with modern nuances.I really love your song.”
Julia Tetzlaff, Music Journalist
Congratulations on this beautiful release. James carries an emotional depth that truly resonates. The melancholic and haunting vocals paired with the intricate instrumentation create a powerful and immersive atmosphere, and also very unique - the voice is really amazing! I got some chills while listening. The way the bass line, guitar, synth, and hybrid harp intertwine gives the song a distinctive texture. I like the way the drums sometimes seems to be in another universe. Your sound has a strong identity within indie rock, and I believe it has the potential to connect deeply with audiences who appreciate both emotional storytelling and refined musicality.
