Brandon Banks has just released his new intoxicating new single ‘Blue’, where he spills out all his emotions. His angelic falsetto leaves us in awe, but masks the pain that Banks speaks of - his lyrics speaking of distance from people and not letting anyone in. The sobering reality comes in the fact that Banks has to use his vices to get over his pain - “cope with tequila shots, help me forget a lot”. ‘Blue’ is a hauntingly beautiful song from Banks' new Tides EP – he is certainly an artist to be on the lookout for. – Christian St.Croix
