Lay Low by Arjuna Oakes
This stripped-bare ballad is the quiet emotional centre of Arjuna Oakes' debut album While I'm Distracted.
If we ever needed an example of the things that make Arjuna such a special artist, this is it. A gorgeous piano performance, cradling the sensitive vocal delivery all supported by his beautiful string arrangements and subtle production magic.
As we approach this exceptional debut LP, Lay Low provides us just a glimpse of the varied depths within.
