New Music Review - ‘Comfort Show’ by Josette
Comfort Show artwork created by Gabrielle Designs. Loving how much this showcases Josette as a person!
She’s put the comfort back into Comfort Show with her second official release, following hot on the heels of her last single, One Shot, Josette brings us an extraordinary bang with this new single, released yesterday, which is taking off into the sunset already with it’s funk-pop sound.
Bringing in the fuzzy sounds of a television set in the beginning then coming in clutch with David Attenborough talking, the song encompasses a multitude of different vibes withheld in its walls and Josette certainly knows how to bring a punch to the party each and undoubtfully every time.
Comfort Show was created with the help of Tim Heeringa (Wulfie), who Josette has worked with on her previous release which set the bar high for what was to come and damn, this one doesn’t disappoint.
Josette is a much known and loved Christchurch musician who has been impressing music lovers with her bubbly, sweet personality while at the same time, delivering a relatively delightful storm into the unknown.
Comfort Show is a track that will take you by surprise, especially if you have not seen Josette live before or heard of her and you’ll most likely walk away with the sound of her music coursing through your veins and a new found passion for supporting your local artists.
There are spoken words within Comfort Show and going from word to word, spoken to sung, is a truly silky smooth transition for Josette, meaning we get an even better glimpse into who she is as a musician and who she is as a person. I personally think those moments in songs are exceptionally special.
The video for Comfort Show absolutely sounds off. Filmed within Josette’s own comfort space, it has tendencies of 70s style, just as the song itself has, making it unique and quaint.
The video was a collaborative effort between Josette, Loren Kett and Steph Damm - the way it has come together really drives the force of Comfort Show, I would say it has to be this weeks funkiest release from a New Zealand artist, hats off to all who worked on this one to make it a heartfully precious release.
Comfort Show is about having a movie or a TV show that helps you escape the daily reality of the mundanity of things and allows you to destress.
So, come through - go play this track to your cat, your best friend and people at your local supey. Spread the word on Comfort Show - what a tune.
