Carla Chanelle

Canadien songstress Carla Chanelle released a song called Juillet a month ago, of course. I missed it then, but in August, and likely beyond, this song works too. It’s breezy, sultry and has an wonderful bassline ( basslines are my thing, yes). It has a nice westcoast-70s vibe. If you’re into the yachty side of Marie-Pierre Arthur, this is for you.

The lyrics are about doubts, wanting to break out of something (a relationship?) but not feeling comfortable enough to push through. Or, I was musing when I heard the song, it’s about wanting to do something deep & meaningful in summer. But, yeah, summer just gets in the way.
