Cap Carter Unveils ‘Thrill’ Music Video
The song is a stunning piece of R&B-infused indie-pop music on which his soulful vocals and emotive lyrics soar. Thrill is an ode to loss, love and the hope of healing after brokenness.
Speaking about his music Cap said,
I was by myself for a long time that year. Locked myself up internally and tried to figure out what the hell was going on with life. I was angry, frustrated and tired about getting nowhere as a musician and as a person. So I did what anyone else would do, I wrote. Lost count of the bottles and I screamed every word til I felt like my soul was healing. That is what my music is - a soul cleanse. A plea for some sort of tourniquet to stop the bleeding.
Born in Manila and raised in Western Sydney, Carter's writing style is reminiscent of the haunting and soulful melodies of Joni Mitchell and George Michael and later being influenced by the introspective lyrical narratives of Paul Simon. Not just a fan-boy of singer-songwriters, Cap’s love for the urban scene drew him to producers, Scott Storch and Kanye West which nurtured his unique and raw ability to write original tunes.
