GIZMO VARILLAS is a Spanish/British singer/songwriter. Now based in Brighton, he’s built up a devoted following via his live shows and three albums.
Now that summer seems to have arrived in the UK (at last), you may want to check out his latest single, a light and lovely ‘’Follow The Sun’. We need to stress that this isn’t jazz or soul – but there’s a vague, harmonic blue-eyed soul vibe to the song which promises a measure of optimism and good times. With a haunting trumpet solo intro performed by Alfredo Pino, the reference point is clearly Ennio Morricone.
Gizmo explains “Last summer, I bought a mini-campervan and decided to explore the southern regions of the UK with my wife and our two Italian Greyhounds. We ventured out on camping trips, immersing ourselves in nature. Gazing into the distance of endless fields of the South Downs, stretching on sandy dunes in Rye, and wandering through the wilderness of the New Forest for hours on end. This song is a heartfelt dedication to all fellow explorers, celebrating the beauty of exploration and the boundless horizons awaiting discovery.” Now you know!
