John E Vistic to release new EP
He’s been a staple on the Bristol music scene for years and after months in the studio, John E Vistic is set to release a new EP.
What Will Be, which features a handful of songs off a forthcoming album, is released by Black Heart Studios on June 22.
The Australian raised singer-songwriter, who has lived in Bristol for years, makes psychedelic country folk, laden with soul and thought provoking literary lyrics. Think Hozier and Johnny Cash meets The Doors with more than a dash of Jack White.
Produced by Tristan Longworth (Jon Allen, The Third Degree etc.) EP tracks range from the Vera Lynn inspired opener What Will Be, to the bottom-of-the-glass fatalism of Gamblin’ Man. The spaced out existentialist psych-rock of I Wait for No Man is followed by a new acoustic bootleg version of Vistic’s electric crowd-pleasers Til My Loneliness Has Gone.
One of the stand-out tracks Long Time Gone features fellow Bristol vocalist Katey Brooks in a beautiful duet, a classic in the making.
The new John E Vistic EP is a collection of tracks from the forthcoming album Welcome Down the Night.
