“Tangibly hand-crafted. Beautifully simple. Delightfully honest.” The words we used to describe Essex, England-based singer-songwriter, John Paul Elliott’s last album, Saint Paul.
Still gigging across London and Essex (most weeks), Elliott recently added to his steadily growing anthology, which includes North To South, Saint Paul, Fall In Love With Me (single), and his latest release, the light, lovely, island-esque, Cape Town Feeling.
“Its basically a feel good song about having wine and being in love in the sunshine.”
With a tropical-style rhythm section, acoustic melody, electric guitar & organ notes dabbled in—and little else—the track possesses a delightfully minimalist vibe, free of worry or ambition. (Think: Jimmy Buffett.)
“It’s early in the morning
And I’m feeling fine
It’s late in the evening
I’m drinking the Cape Town wine
It’s your love that I’m feeling
It’s your love that I’m feeling
I love this Cape Town feeling…”
WHOSE LOVECHILD…?
Elvis Costello meets Jimmy Buffett…
