Known for his warm and ethereal sounds, singer-songwriter Blakey shares his new single "If I Go" today. It's so unique that upon listening, it floods with the idea that this could be Jack Johnson meets Calvin Harris. The Woodbridge, UK artist mixes soaring melodies with high pitched vocal notes and rhythmic verses on "If I Go". He even strips back the ending verses into an acoustic and almost spoken-word delivery, giving the single a unique universal sound and displaying his creative approach to songwriting and production.
While wearing his heart on his sleeve, "If I Go" is his introspective look at the ever-complex theme of love. Over email, he shared with EARMILK, "‘If I Go' is a song about teetering on the edge of loves' abyss. To gaze long enough into it, to know if love is looking back at you.” The single is the first of many for the artist recently signed to Let Me Hear It, the dreamy cut is no trivial electronic-pop song, but one that stays true to his quirky approach.
