George Cassavettes, better known as London's electro-R&B crooner Stay Bless, has returned with "Distance", another slice from his upcoming EP In Paradise.
Reining in the more clubtastic tendencies of lead single, "Girl", Cassavettes positively floats on "Distance", awash in twinkling synths and heavenly background vocals, an ambience that still manages to hold its ground through grime MC Trim's drawling cameo.
In Paradise is out 9 March courtesy of In Stereo Records, run by the fine folks over at London In Stereo. Catch Stay Bless live for the EP release show 11 March at Birthdays in London.
