“Hands in My Pocket” is the first offering from Keith Hallett’s upcoming album, his first full-length project since moving into Never Nuthin’ Studios, where he navigates the roles of musician and producer, achieving a rare mastery of both.
Guided by a gritty, precisely lopsided bass line, the single exudes a suspicious energy that requires attention from the outset. Keith’s guitar work is effortless in a way that takes decades of practice and it weaves through the rhythm section while he sings things you might hear if you sat next to the wrong person on the bus. It’s shady in a way that makes you want to dig deeper.
Capturing the essence of Never Nuthin’ Studios, the single’s music video provides a distorted glimpse into Keith’s natural habitat. Shot and edited by Matt Legere, it serves as a perfect visual reflection of the song’s grimy charm.
The video is available on Youtube and all streaming platforms April 23rd.
