London-born artist James Mathé aka Barbarossa unveils “Thickening Air”. It’s the second single taken from his upcoming new album “Lier”.
Following up on previously released single “Don’t Enter Fear“, Barbarossa shares the piano-driven ballad “Thickening Air” which was inspired by the classic songwriters that James Mathé obsesses over: Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Brian Wilson and Joni Mitchell. The delicate melody and vocal bring you into a music cocoon where time totally stops.
