Feathers is a delicate slice of indie-pop brilliance.

Dutch indie artist Calundé has offered up the first taste of his forthcoming debut album with the beautifully composed new single Feathers. Writing, producing, and performing his work all by himself, Calundé emerges as an exciting new act to keep an eye on.

Creating an aura of everlasting bliss and serenity, Feathers is a wonderful indie cut that explores the concept of human connection in the digital age. With an emotional fragility to his sound, Calundé paints the air with light guitar splashes and gentle percussive trails, building a sense of comforting wooziness. His airy vocals glide over the lush texture, offering a dose of summer sunlight in the musical form that radiates warmth and soothes the soul.

Speaking on the new single, Calundé explains:

It is already difficult enough to read people based on their (physical) characteristics and it has been even more difficult in this digital era. Feathers is inspired by the old Dutch saying “aan de veren kent men de vogel” which implies that birds are best recognised by carefully looking at their feathers.
