The video is professional and the production is smart and polished which brought this song to a whole new level. The guitars are amazing and the vocal melodies are incredibly catchy. Dickson’s voice is a piece of art and his lyrics are original and well written. This song shows off some stunning tones of Dickson’s voice and shows how talented he is when it comes to writing songs. We enjoyed listening to this song until the end and we are glad we had the chance to review it on Cheers to the Vikings!
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
British indie singer-songwriter Freddie Dickson writes and sings songs of a dark romantic nature. Often armed with his beloved Fender Jaguar and inspired by the likes of Nick Cave and Portishead, Dickson’s melancholic melodies weave their way through both his solo work as well his songwriting collaborations with other artists.
In 2018, seeking new inspiration, Freddie decided to move from London to Berlin where he would finalize the recording and production of his second album Blood Street. Sketching various scenes of modern society and its darker shades, Blood Street received widespread acclaim from local critics and blogs alike.
After Blood Street and all the ongoing confusion in the world, Dickson seeked catharsis through his music and looked to calm the anxieties of a life unknown. Themes of uncertainty, loss and self-awareness inspired his latest batch of songs. Having immersed himself in the vibrant Berlin music scene, Dickson began recording and producing the four songs with his band in various Berlin studios.
Dickson paints a picture of Berlin nightlife and the trials and tribulations of moving to a new city. Late night shots of underground Berlin and filming in an old Stasi Headquarters sets the tone for Dickson’s fascination with Berlin’s underbelly.
Dickson’s new EP is due for release in May 2021.
