As debut EPs go, ‘Trust the Season’ is definitely a stand-out. Penned by spiritual creative Becca James, the record could be better described as aspirational and celebrative, while showcasing the project’s deep eclecticism, both from a lyrical and sonic aspect. ‘One’ introduces us to James’ hypnotising world with an infectious and euphoric afrobeat groove, while delving into the mysterious connections between nature, people and the cosmos.
‘Beauty’ explores more electronic and punchy settings, although retaining a decisively kaleidoscopic character. Pairing ethereal vocal harmonies with esoteric rhythms and cinematic energy, the track is set to capture the attention of even the most apathetic of listeners, signalling the extraordinary magnitude of Becca James’ artistic aura.
‘Hold You Close’ closes the EP on a mellower and nuanced note, pushing us to “find divine support, the nectar we all need to get through difficult times”. The project’s deep spiritual perspectives are frankly quite needed in our modern times, which often tend to feel quite cold and impersonal. Becca supports us in rediscovering our inner authenticity, highlighting a path to healing and self-growth.
Whether or not all the above will resonate with you – there’s no denying that even just on a purely musical level, ‘Trust the Season’ is pure gold. So embrace it, it’ll be worth it.
