England based musician (and filmmaker, evidently) Kai Undrell of Sheffield dropped his lead single “Can It Get Any Better…?” September 22 in anticipation of his debut EP Full Fat Fear due out October 13. Citing influences from Arcade Fire and Scissor Sisters, “Any Better…?” sounds like what would happen if Elton John started making music in the early aughts but was a bit more reserved. This is definitely a piano forward song with some tight bass licks in the background with Undrell showcasing his delightful vocals (seriously, that man has some PIPES). It’s honestly quite refreshing to hear a piano/synth piano clone starring as the main instrument (with a beat to boot) in contemporary music.
While I’m not sure if the question the song poses is ever answered (or if it’s even supposed to be), Kai Undrell absolutely is worth a listen and someone to look out for. Be sure to check out “Can It Get Any Better…?” on Spotify or Youtube and his EP Full Fat Fear October 13.
