INDOLORE - “Terry”
French indie folk artist Guillaume Simon, aka INDOLORE, has just released “Terry,” a poignant tribute to genuine friendship.
“Terry” is a wonderfully chill slice of folky rock that has been basted in the sweet sauce of neo-soul. It begins with a full-band arrangement that includes a tight, slow-paced rhythm section, the delightful tones of a Rhodes, and ultra-vibey layers of guitars. All of these elements have been wrapped in a vintage-tinged production that beholds a 1970s warm and buttery compression.
The vocal performance carries a great deal of this retro-inspired weight, rolling right off of the recording like two-inch tape pouring directly into your earholes. As the kids say, “Terry” is a mood, and the heavenly harmonizing vocal layers not only add remarkable highlights over key areas, but they also help the entire tune bask in the satisfying glow of analogue.
Simon’s upper register is bound to resonate with fans of Elliott Smith, even though the song’s subject matter leans into the less melancholic end of of the singer-songwriter spectrum.
