Elliott Skinner, a versatile artist from Texas, has released a new song titled 'RECALLING'.
This release marks a significant step as he joins the esteemed UK label Ninja Tune.
Having recently been based in Denmark, Elliott Skinner is a singer, songwriter, and producer who has gained recognition through various collaborations.
He has worked with prominent artists including Chance the Rapper, Leon Bridges, Nai Palm (of Hiatus Kaiyote), Amos Lee, Jon Batiste, Pusha T, and many more, but he is now clearly focused on his solo career.
The beautiful new track ‘RECALLING’ is available now, offering a soothing piece of future-soul that reveals Elliott Skinner's personal narrative.
“‘RECALLING’ addresses the idea of not confining yourself to a version of your life that isn’t truly yours,” Elliott explains. “It’s about striving for a better reality. We often conform to societal norms that provide us comfort, yet vulnerability is uncomfortable. It takes effort to confront the truths hidden behind our fantasies, to explore our inner selves.”
The song appears to have been in development for quite a while – the lyrics were drafted in 2018 and have developed through different arrangements, often shaped during his dynamic live performances.
Elliott adds:
“Music has always served as a means for us to connect and try to understand one another. For me, it has been a way to discover myself. I penned the lyrics to ‘RECALLING’ in 2018 and have showcased it in several iterations, consistently inviting the audience to sing along with the phrase ‘I don’t want another fantasy.’ I encourage them to sing it with conviction. This chant is a tool for exploration. I hope that wherever people sing this, they choose to delve deeper.”
