Tom Emlyn Drops Double Crossed Video
Swansea’s Tom Emlyn is set to release Rehearsal for the Rain: Scaredycat Vol 2 this August, and when he dropped this new video, I was instantly drawn towards it. There are certain elements that reflect a touch of of baroque pop influences, yet other moments Tom feels like he’s channeling more traditional songwriter fare like a Cohen or Banhart (more recently). When its done by Emlyn, there’s certainly an intimacy built in the careful craft of the bedroom pop brandished, vocals rising in just the right spots to drop the proper melodic hook in on the listener. Keep your eyes and ears peeled if you’re into that crafty brand of pop n’ roll.
