ATTAWALPA PLEASE TAKE CARE

London’s Attawalpa has today dropped his best track yet, ‘Please Take Care’. It takes the form of a slow, atmospheric ballad with hints towards Black Country, New Road and Jarvis Cocker seeping through the pseudo spoken word and juxtaposing blend of delicate acoustic guitars and experimental background soundscapes. “It touches upon the endless pursuit of stable mental health, along with the acceptance that our demons and crutches are immobilising assholes,” he explains. “Written from a place of frustration, it's about a few people/situations, including my own experiences during a period of reflection on feeling numb for most of my life.” His deeply personal songwriting experience will be expanded on in his upcoming debut EP, Patterns, due for release on July 2nd 2021. -Dan Peeke
