WILL JOSEPH COOK YOU JUMP I RUN LP VINYL EP NEW
1. Message
2. Streets of Paris
3. Daisy Chains
4. You Jump I Run
Will Joseph Cook is a man with two first names, but his music is distinctly singular, and this EP of his is going to put him on the map. One of his latest singles, �Message�, is one of those songs that you may not have had on your radar, but the moment it greets your ears, you�re instantly questioning where you�ve heard it before. This phenomenon isn�t because Cook is making music that�s predictable, but rather, because the beauty in the notes will undoubtedly conjure up some of your happiest memories listening to other greats in indie-rock. The EP tracklist also features �Streets of Paris�, and not only will it make you fall in love with the budding artist even more, but it also showcases Cook�s range perfectly.
New to the party here is �Daisy Chains� and �You Jump I run� (the EP�s namesake). Both songs are worthy additions to the project, and it�s clear that no single song rode in on the coattails of another. �Daisy Chains�, for example, strips things down to the lowest common denominator, and can trace its lineage to material from bigger names like Max Frost and Local Natives. Lastly, we have �You Jump I run�, and while it�s up for debate on whether Cook saved his best for last (we�re having a tough time picking a favorite from the EP), there�s a clear sense that he�s all about finishing up strong and isn�t about to tack on a fourth track simply for its own sake. No, this is a standout offering and could have easily been a single as well.
