COTHEL rewind

COTHEL

Rewind 

Self-release 14/06/24

A plucked guitar and jazzy chord progression opens up Rewind, the new single from Liverpool’s COTHEL, gently opening the door for two and a half minutes of laid back psych-folk. Imagine it’s 3am at a woodland festival and you hear the faint sound of melody in the distance, so you wander over to investigate and come across six otherworldly humans vibing on their instruments amidst a collective comedown… you get the picture. 

It’s a lilting affair, round bass tones and finger-snaps proving to be the only rhythmic requirement as vocals drift away at the end of stanzas, folding in on themselves in a pillowy cloud of loveliness. Delicate backing vocals introduce themselves midway through the song to add a tender warmth to the already cozy proceedings, whilst polite synths embalm everything in a coat of sugary bliss. 

And just like that, it’s over. Intriguing and intimate, Rewind is well worthy of being played on a loop until the band offer up an extended remix just long enough to drift off to sleep to after a night of hedonistic thrill-seeking in the woodlands, the club, the pub, or wherever.
