Effortless and armed with endless talent, those are a few words to describe Callum Crighton. The sort of artist you stick on when you need a boost of energy, this flamboyant character is colourful, sassy and the sort of role model you’d want for your kids. Standing up for individuality, creativity and the LGBTQ+ community, Callum is certainly quite the character.
Speaking about the nostalgic yet refreshing upcoming EP and last track on the release ‘Universal Hand’, Callum shares, “This track was inspired by the loneliness yet togetherness one can feel from the age of digital communication. It has an old school 80’s ballad sound with a more modern upbeat drum movement to connect the nostalgic ideals of the past with the electronic realities of the present. This track could loosely be seen as a reference to the isolation people felt during the 2020 pandemic, but extends much further, and can also be about the loneliness one may feel within themselves.”
Four tracks of glistening synthesisers and the sort of instrumentation you’d want to walk down a catwalk to, this EP has something for everyone buried within its core. Get hold of a copy, stream it and be transported to Callum’s happy place – it will instantly become yours too.
