JC Carroll - The Golborne Variations

medran001

Review by Marc-André Runcie-Unger

The Golborne Variations by JC Carroll is a beautifully crafted album that showcases the songwriter's talents in a variety of styles. From the opening track, "The Last Laugh," which features a haunting piano melody and melancholic lyrics, to the upbeat and catchy "Funky London Town," Carroll demonstrates his versatility as a songwriter.

The album features a range of musical influences, from rock and blues to jazz and soul, all woven together seamlessly. Carroll's lyrics are thoughtful and introspective, exploring themes of love, loss, and the human condition.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Ghost of You," a soulful ballad that showcases Carroll's emotive vocals and heartfelt lyrics. The stripped-back arrangement allows the song's poignant message to shine through.
