Melbourne-born musician Vic Stone left Australia for the bright lights of New York City back in 2013. There he’s been honing his craft, developing his sound and collaborating with local artists. Last summer he showcased some of his original songs in his free Sounds on C concerts around Manhattan and Brooklyn.
I actually intended to write a post promoting his debut single “Misery.” It’s such a funky track with a really easy groove that reminds me a little of a late 70s disco track. I love the dirty quality of Vic’s voice too. This is really good stuff.
But then I discovered another email in my inbox about his follow-up track “Beautiful.” This is a different flavour, still soulful but with some real angst and longing behind it.
Both songs come from Vic’s debut album One Eleven, which is currently available digitally. What track’s your favourite?
