Cris Cap’s ‘Live Like My Cat’ : A Blues Rock Funk Pop
Cris Cap is a singer-songwriter and composer. His music revolves around jazz, blues, funk, and pop. An easy current that playfully swirls them together. It plays out smooth and easy, with elating creative elements and quirky accents. You’ll especially experience this sweet contrast in his latest double single, ‘Live Like My Cat’ and ‘Howlin’ at the Moon’. It is blue yet peppy, sentimental yet fun, and classic yet contemporary. The way he progresses within the composition is layered. Employing darting, evolving, and dynamic instrumentals, he shapes the theme with such a light hand. You can slide through the track, its energy continuous and consistent as you journey with it.
The first track is a curious song about a human’s wish to live like a cat. Chilling all day, napping and then chilling some more. The protagonist, as an adult, wishes for that carefree existence and constructs the song around it. Not only that, but he absorbs the wisdom to chill, rest, and take it easy.
Rhythms are groovy and lithe with funk. The melodies are dim and dazing with a neon-tinted underground bar vibe. Moments of summery brightness dot this mood. There is a contemplative ethos to it, which is accentuated by wandering melodies. And layered stylistically, tonally, rhythmically, melodically, and energy-wise, all held and developed simultaneously, it is quite the sophisticated act.
‘Howling’ at the Moon’ featuring fellow artist Gary, has that same expressive/bluesy jazz/chamber pop/funk rock vibe. The baritonal warmth of Cris’s vocals are as comforting as brandy on a cold winter’s day. The dominant instrument in the song is the guitar as opposed to Live Like A Cat’s piano. Gary’s playing style and energy so smoothly complements the vision and more importantly the delivery style of Cris Cap. He plays it easy and effortless, that it feels immutable. Listen Now!
