Indie / Folk singer-songwriter Joe T. Johnson has released his debut single ‘10 Pounds’. In the past, Joe performed multiple times at Glastonbury Festival in 2019, made his first international TV appearance on ‘Made in Bristol TV’ and recently performed at the O2 Academy Bristol with his band Hush Mozey. Steve Lamacq also “Recommended” his band Hush Mozey on his BBC 6 Music show.

Draped in vintage pop, ‘10 Pounds’ presents Joe T. Johnson’s laid back sound through melodic and soft instrumentation. The song bounces delicately upon jangly guitar, a soft beat and whispered mellow vocals as Johnson floods the track with sweet notions, simple arrangements and stories of life in England. Warm indie elements chime through the twinkling guitar as the vocal melody becomes the track’s main charming center point. There are hues of The Beatles wisping through the lush dreamy soundscapes and smooth vocals while the striking lyrics contrast the hazy soundscape. ‘10 Pounds’ is a well crafted absorbing ditty exuding hefty lyrical content and sweet retro pop with a modern twist.
