FREDDIE WEBBER - KEEP YOUR COOL

 FREDDIE WEBBER - KEEP YOUR COOL

Freddie Webber, the lead singer of Freddy & The Fabs is a young, talented singer/songwriter with his roots in the UK. You won't hear the previous sentence out of his own mouth because he doesn't want to toot his own horn, but I had the chance to say it... so I did.

What he will say about himself is that he is completely head over heels, besotted, engrossed, infatuated and obsessed with making and playing music. He has a somewhat strong (some say unhealthy) obsession with his guitars and he has not slept more than two feet away from his six string lover since he picked up that bad boy. And if you really would like to know how good looking and talented he is you should come to his shows, buy his EP's or just ask his mother.

Keep Your Cool is a song that really intrigues me. The song gives me a bit of a bluesy feeling and the almost threatening tones draw me into the story. A story about a guy that thinks someone is after him and he really sounds desperate about it. And the whole story is covered in mystery. You'll never know what has happened on the 8th or if they eventually caught him. Or is this just a cliffhanger ?


Lyrics :

Keep your cool

And your story straight

Cause they're gonna ask you

Where I was on the 8th


You say that I was with you

We went out

We went drinking, got home and passed out


Because they asked me the same

And that's what I said went down

Cause they can not know

Or find out

Where I was or how I got out

This is ridiculous

I could use your help right now


What do I do

Where do I go

I can not eat or sleep

And I'm scared of a knock on the door


How did it go

What did they say

You took long

Did you give me away

Should I pack my bags

Or is it safe to stay


What should I do

Where should I go

I can not eat or sleep

And I'm scared of a knock on the door


Don't give me away

Don't give me away


Keep your cool

And your story straight

We never met

I was never here

But they'll try to use you as bait


Cause they're coming for me

And I need to run

Don't open the door

Don't answer the phone

Just keep your cool

And if in doubt play dumb


What should I do

Where should I go

I can not eat or sleep

And I'm scared of a knock on the door


Don't give me away

Don't give me away

Don't give me away

No, don't give me away

OFF THE GRID FESTIVAL

OFF THE GRID FESTIVAL Normally I write about a song that caught my attention or that has a special meaning to me but this article is a tribute to this small festival that I had the honor in attending in Croatia's capital Zagreb at the Vintage Industrial Bar This story actually starts in June 2022. While I was watching the amazing band L.H.D.  at the Trash'n'Burn festival in Croatia, I met some great people who were also in a band called Melewai . We started talking, drank some beers and after the festival we stayed in touch. From time to time they released a new song on Bandcamp and I just loved their songs. I promised them that whenever they would play their first live gig I would do my best to be there. And then the news came that Melewai was going to play at the Off The Grid festival, organised by L.H.D. and together with Sumski  and Psycho Mutants . So, keeping my promise, I was there on the 27th of December. Melewai opened the festival and a lot of people did not reall

JERRY MOTOR - MARY

 JERRY MOTOR - MARY Jerry Motor's latest single, "Mary," plunges listeners into a captivating musical experience that resonates with haunting melodies and pulsating rhythms. With a vocal delivery reminiscent of a crossover between Skunk Anansie and Kate Bush, the band delivers a performance that is both powerful and evocative. From the moment the drums kick in, the song establishes a relentless momentum that drives the narrative forward. The pounding and thriving percussion sets the pace, adding layers of intensity to the composition. Each beat feels purposeful, contributing to the overall dynamic of the track. The guitar work in "Mary" is nothing short of mesmerizing. While maintaining a clean tone, it weaves intricate melodies that linger in the listener's mind long after the song has ended. The haunting quality of the guitar adds depth to the music, creating an atmosphere that is both eerie and enchanting. However, it's the bass that truly sh

ALPS. - WANT YOU NOW

Afbeelding
 ALPS. - WANT YOU NOW Life is full of surprises.  Sometimes it gives you lemons, sometimes it gives you Alps..  At The Black Flamingo we really are blessed with the people that come visit us.  No matter how big or small the audience, they give the artists all the attention they deserve.  One day Jesse came over to watch a show here.  I didn't knew who he was but someone pointed out to me that he also was a musician and a songwriter.  After a little research (hurrah for socials) I came across two of his projects, Alps. and CYNN' (more about CYNN' later, I'm sure). For me Alps. is more than songs.  When I close my eyes while listening to them I can almost feel the scenery passing by.  Want You Now in particular makes me feel like being somewhere on a mountain pasture (Alps.?) and it's my perfect waking up song after a stressy week or a heavy night. I already had the privilege to see them perfom live and what a show that was ! Go check them out if you get the chance.
