We believe the humble music video is a seriously underappreciated art form. In our opinion, nothing makes you feel quite as immersed within an artist’s music – actually, you can’t beat a live show atmosphere for full immersion but we’re definitely biased there.. Our ONE TO WATCH series aims to bring you the latest music videos from some of our most exciting new artists.
Today’s One To Watch is The Lady Of Forever by Lewis Leverett
Born and raised in Essex, but inspired by lyrical craftspeople like Cohen, Dylan and Mitchell, Lewis Leverett’s goal in songwriting has always been to use the techniques employed by those artists to make something new. Something that drew from the world he grew up in, and the sounds of the 21st century. Knowing this, one can see how Essex Gothic was born.
Leverett explores the surreal and the mundane in equal measure, endlessly experimenting with sound and lyric. Never satisfied working in just one genre, his debut album has been described by fans and critics as indie, folk, southern gothic, art rock, and more. Lewis, however, simply wants to be known as a singer-songwriter, a storyteller.
