With a raw vocal performance reminiscent of Grant Lee Buffalo’s Grant-Lee Phillips, Jeff Buckley, and Joe Jackson, paired with a minimal acoustic folk sound and a soulful, noir saxophone filling the void, American crooner Roland Dixon gives us chills with Choke, the stunning opener from his first full-length record Suicide Kid. The song’s heart belongs somewhere in the ’80s but carries ’90s aesthetics and a timeless dramatic romance tone. This is music that creates shivers down your spine.
This is not TikTok music; this is purity.
