Evan Crommett is a refreshingly eclectic, bedroom studio hunkered, guitar-playing singer-songwriter, producer, actor and New York city hustler, with a fondness for cranking out downtempo, genre-fluid alt-pop songs. With his new material, he appears to be upping his collaborative game, and has invited the similarly NYC-dwelling writer, director, singer and Luro band leader, Hanna Rose Armmon - an old music making college buddy, to hop on board with this latest single, and the result is an alt-pop delight.
Hitting the detonator when things go wrong in a relationship; we've all at least thought about it, if not done it, and this is that moment's soundtrack. For such a destructive act, the song is surprisingly sweet, Crommett's gently emotive vocals eager to join the simple but deadly guitar refrain and its subtle meandering that provides the song's smouldering coals.
Armmon bides her time, eyes closed, sinking into the song's somehow reassuring, yet foreboding glow, before having her beautifully delivered say on the topic, and then joining Crommett in seriously synergistic duet - the vocals intertwining like late-night lovers. Self sabotage never sounded so good.
