Norfolk-based singer-songwriter Alexander Carson delves into the loss of youth and naivety on atmospheric offering “The Museum,” giving us the first glimpse of his third solo album The Idiot. Carried by Carson’s soft vocals layered over an expansive combination of lush pianos and echoing guitars, the track is a poetic and imaginative exploration of real life.
With a healing touch seeping out of his candidly observational yet cheeky lyrics, “The Museum," is a deeply thoughtful production which captures western societies' collective obsession with our smartphones as the harmonious instrumental takes us into a sonic world that values a simpler side of life.
Built on rich yet delicate melodies and Carson’s ability to bring humor and contemplation together, the track continues to set Carson up as a memorable solo act, after having made a name for himself as part of genre-fluid quintet Wooden Arms. Having captured attention with his debut album in 2019, this reverberant offering makes for a soothing yet enticing teaser of his forthcoming project.
