KONNER

Scottish based indie pop artist Konner brings his latest offering of lo fi indie to your ears, with his music featured by the likes of BBC Introducing Scotland, Amazing Radio and receiving support from the Spotify Editorial playlist 'We Are Glasgow'.  His latest track 'I can't Get Away' was recorded with Edinburgh based producer Mark Morrow and fans of The 1975, Fickle Friends and Josef will instantly gravitate towards Konner and his sound and will be quickly adding him into their playlists. 

'I Can't Get Away' is the ultimate lo fi chill out track, that brings those relaxing vibes making you want to sit back, relax and listen.   This is Konner's first ballad style track, taking a slower more mellow pace compared to his previous releases, no element in this track overpowers the other, from the low fi drum beat and bassline to the piano/guitar melody and vocals, all complementing each other so incredibly well.   The lyrics are heart-rending and filled with a lot of emotion, yet Konner's vocal tone is so smoothly delivered and emits an instant feeling of calm, comfort, with so much passion and soul you instantly feel making you fall completely into this track and those vocal harmonies are just stunning.  Konner mentions "'I Can't Get Away' is a song about not being able to escape the worst of yourself and being stuck in a vicious cycle.  It was almost a letter to myself explaining the cycle of self doubt and self deprecation I was stuck in, where every person around me seemed to be a reflection back at my own insecurities, but also acknowledging how important it was to face these feelings and keep going.  It's a lonely song but one filled with a bit of hope that things will get better".  As the song progresses the instrumentation becomes more intense, the drum beat and bass line stay consistent with the piano and guitar melody building on that atmosphere which breaks into a powerful chorus and doesn't let up, pulling you in completely.  There really is a lot to be enjoyed in this track mixing lo fi with ambient rock, r&b and synth pop.
