While it’s easy to forget what made the music of the sixties and seventies so superior to much of what major labels churn out today, you’re quickly reminded when you stumble upon the same level of quality and craftsmanship that once graced the charts. Put simply, it comes down to melodically rich music paired with lyrics that actually mean something.
KER is a British artist who only entered the music scene about a decade ago after a long career in marketing—and we’re all the better for it. The music that has come from that decision is, quite frankly, excellent.
“Just What Happened” is a retro-flavoured indie pop gem that harks back to the late sixties, yet could just as easily have emerged during the Britpop boom of the nineties. It’s a strong indie offering, driven by compelling vocals, crisp guitar work, and—most importantly—a memorable melody.
Anyone who appreciates music from those eras will absolutely love “Just What Happened.” That’s a promise.
