GRAZIA SOUNDS LIVE RECORDING – JACK GARRATT: PART TWO

Jack Garratt is incessantly jolting during his set. The 24-year-old bearded multi-instrumentalist’s face is almost aching; paining for every minim on his keyboard, every chord on his guitar and every pad on the pedal of his drum. An artist who feels so much as he takes the stage, there is no rhyme to his musical reason; the only common denominator to Garratt’s formula is he lets you feel his trembling falsetto in every track before a sudden eruption of sound, of power. It’s here, you can’t turn him off. I read somewhere that someone had described this performance as “a firecracker that just wont go out” and that’s exactly what he is; a trick birthday candle, a peaking heart-rate monitor, witnessing a high-octane car chase along a really long highway.
