The video features haunting shots of sea-swept cliffs, cut between Josh delivering his mournful, melancholic and mesmerising vocals. The atmosphere is dark and introspective, with soulful, searching sentiments conjured by rolling waves on the British coast.
The dark piece of folk/Americana opens with his unique deep tones, which are achingly beautiful among hushed guitar strums before he breaks into a deeply emotive chorus. The result is similar to the songwriting work of Nick Cave, Jeff Buckley and Leonard Cohen.
Josh McGovern delivers a distinctive and enticing new voice among UK singer/songwriters. Now with the release of ‘Lost Left Lost’ he continues to prove himself a serious prospect for 2018.
