Establishing the mood with a dimensional electric guitar performance, showcasing instrumental mastery, and expanding with textured percussion into a trippy and progressive blues-jazz-bossa nova hybrid energy, Teymur Karimli opens Catch with cinematic allure.

The opus feels like the perfect fit for a movie score, charming, dynamic and playful. Teymur Karimli shares his incredible skill, a high octane performance, laced with intricacy. The sonic switch up mid-way through taps into a more meditative energy as the warm bassline invites us to connect on a more emotional level.

Fans of Dire Straits and Carlos Santana would be able to connect with the brilliance demonstrated with Teymur Karimli‘s performance. The finale sends us astral and the guitar’s transcendental potential is really brought to life with the visionary artist’s skill. The track even boasts a fade out, which only leaves us yearning for more!

We learn that Catch is designed to serve as an introduction to guitar prodigy Teymur Karimli, who is showing us who he is at just 13-year-old! The visionary ingenue offers a fiery and soulful tribute to the golden era of ‘80s blues-rock.

Born on the Indonesian island of Batam and raised in Baku, Azerbaijan, Teymur grew up surrounded by music and inspired by his grandfather’s love for classic rock and blues legends. He tells us how Catch is meant to feel like a conversation between a boy and his heroes, but what it really shows us is the incredible potential of a young human being with passion and what feels almost like an ancestral knowledge of the instrument.

Naturally, we are in awe and have added Catch to our New Music Spotlight playlist, and our TIMELESS and TRIPPY playlists, whilst we continue to stream Teymur Karimli‘s sophomore single, Sea Breeze!
