Essex based singer-songwriter Kevin Pearce’s new single “Maria Come Home” has arrived just in time for winter, and it’s ready to warm you right up. As a result, we’ve aptly decided to make Kevin this week’s Artist of The Week.
The single is instantly atmospheric, filled with captivating strings, pretty piano notes, and Kevin’s heartbreakingly warm vocal taking centre stage. It could easily be mistaken for a Christmas song and despite its bittersweet sound in parts, it manages to give you that warm and fuzzy feeling throughout.
The single is an ode to the late, great soprano Maria Callas, an artist Kevin is personally touched by and the sadness of her story is clearly self-evident within Pearce’s widely emotive vocal. Kevin has already received support from a number of UK publications as well as BBC Radio 6 Music and BBC Radio 2.
“Maria Come Home” is from Kevin’s new album So On, in stores on 8th December 2017 via Dharma Records.
