‘Trust Me’ is a truly wonderful new single from Barnaby Keen. Much of the track is centred on a laid-back guitar pattern that slides around the neck, filled with melodic embellishment and beauty. The vocal line, however, almost has a sense of folky familiarity to it. Barnaby Keen explains this: “I was seeing a Romanian bodybuilder for a while; she was a tree surgeon and used to come up with songs whilst working. She used to hum this melody but didn’t know where it had come from and assumed it was an old folk song.” The stripped-back tune is a great example of what a talented singer-songwriter can achieve. -Dan Peeke
