Windowsill is an intricate cocktail of nostalgic references, abstract humour and jazz chords. It’s an ode to 18 years spent in the south, romanticising some memories while infusing Mcbess feeling of disdain for this part of the world. It’s all about contrast, stories of growing up in place made up of sun and boredom.
Recorded in London with Muff Meridol of Wayfarer Sound Studio, using some unconventional recording technics to achieve the sound that Mcbess was looking for. Mellotron, marimbas, 80’s synth, all this on top of a solid rhythm section. Matt Christensen and Gregory Talon play drums on the album, with a bit of voice acting from Bruno Bolla, guest singes Clement Bolla and Carl Addy bring some good vibes on two tracks, all other instruments played by Mcbess.

Debut single Power Boat is laid back psych-pop; seasick guitars submerged under layers of chorus, spiked with vintage synths and driven by an understated but purposeful rhythm section. Drawing influence from Christensen’s native South Africa, nocturnal exploits around the world & risqué misadventures viewed through a rose-tinted & chemically enhanced memory filter. Out on 7 May on Dirty Melody Records, the split EP Hors d'œuvres (with Mcbaise) drops ahead of full album VISIONS in summer 2021.
