🎧 Callum Pitt – ‘Fault Lines’

Posted on by

We recently came across Newcastle singer/songwriter Callum Pitt and we’re certainly glad we did. His latest single is a rather infectious number that blends elements of folk, pop and alternative to create an incredibly cohesive sound.

The song “is directed at the UK government and right-wing press who have incited hatred and division in the public through their rhetoric over the past few years in particular.”

Check out Fault Lines in the embed below and be sure to hit up his socials for more going forward.

The video for the first single Grey And Blue is a raucous guitar driven number featuring the one and only J. Mascis on lead guitar and a bunch of very adorable canines. Check it out in the embed below and head over to their socials to show the trio some love.
