London artist applies Peter Gabriel-like art-pop to grieve over climate change
’s contemplative new song, “Blue Comanche,” makes space for grief amidst imminent disaster. Originally a folk artist, the London musician has spent the past few years crafting elegant pop songs full of self-interrogation. But here, he allows himself to fantasize, stretching out a moment of resigned acceptance at what the planet’s come to. “I am nearly there, cyborg/Ready to take your course,” he sighs over a rippling guitar.
“I’m not a Luddite, I don’t think we should go back to the Stone Age or anything, but there’s still something profoundly sad about what’s being lost,” Westerman said in a statement released with the single, referencing “the inevitability of environmental loss” in a modernized world. “Blue Comanche” never loses sight of these dire circumstances, even as it takes on a starry-eyed wonder towards the world that’s been lost.
