Undoubtedly the most beautiful male vocals to grace the indie-pop scene since, well, ever. Here’s the debut from Australian-born but London-based singer-songwriter Josef Salvat. Giving an air of mystique with no official bio available online isn’t the only comparison you will end up making to (an early) Lana Del Rey after hearing this. From a male vocal standpoint, Josef reminds me of a cross between Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits), Morrissey and Colin Vearncombe (Black, ‘Wonderful Life’) – yet tonally superior than all of these collectively.
Josef is working with Rich Cooper on production. Artwork shot by Louis Banks. ‘This Life’ is released on 25th March. Video directed by Sophie Andrea Tabet and remixes below and under the cut.
