Boyce Thompson is your neighbourly singer-songwriter and folk artist from the 60s and 70s. The artist designs such dynamic soundscapes, all so intuitive and expressive in ways that feel real and authentic. His stylistic range is notable with folk attributes twisting and turning into jazzy paths, smoky blues, and a funky rock rhythm. In his ‘Record Time’ album, 2021, you’ll especially get to encounter the playful, light-hearted, and feel-goodness of this artist. As he plays around with moments of storytelling with hilarious narratives, theatrical soundscapes, and an exhibition of whimsy, you won’t be able to walk away from his corner on Spotify.

‘Alligator Arms’ opens the album. It is made with plush, velvet textures, rung with enjoyable saxophone melodies, jazz piano, and clingy films of cabaret flashes. You get to especially experience the performative charisma of the artist, his natural talent and a surmounting sense of the cultural ethos. It is so entertaining and so fulfilling to just sit through the show. You can imagine a full scene playing out at a show in Vegas perhaps. His ability to absorb jazz into fresh moments of narrations and storytelling is so elegant and smooth. Listen Now!

The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
