Artist: TEROUZ
Who: The guise of Cairo born Illustrator/singer/songwriter Karim Terouz, who moved to Montreal in 2008. He fronted and managed award-wining, brassy, folk/rock quintet ‘The Rsing Few‘ for several years
Pick: OUTSTANDING – solo debut single – “an ode to my journey of renewal. It documents a major growth spurt of self-acceptance, letting go, going for it, forgiveness and deep love, not to mention tons of hysterical and sombre sarcasm – my life experience steeped in loss, pain, and fierce reality checks. All of this led me to wisdom, strength, love, and a deep appreciation for good old, consistent groove” says Terouz
Score: This is high-quality songwriting. Pop noir at its very best. Both catching and touching with echoes from The National and Beirut. Amazingly orchestrated, richly arranged and Terouz’s appealing vox all over it. Capture the dancey vibe right here…
