Out now, this debut single from the Northumberland born, London based singer-songwriter Chris Hornsby is a very promising start. With a light acoustic feel almost at odds with a relatively high tempo, this is a high energy song which manages to not be too in your face.
If I were looking for a comparison, I’d say the song reminds me of Counting Crows in sound and style. It’s a folky, story based song with a nice line in strummed, layered acoustic guitar and a beautifully understated voice very similar in tone to the Counting Crows front man, whose name escapes me. Adam something?
Anyway, it makes for a promising comparison and a very solid start for a debut songwriter. Long may Chris Hornsby’s run of form continue.
