In the run up to his upcoming EP, The Voice star Johnny Gates is sharing his new single ‘Cliché’.
Speaking of the motivation behind the track, Johnny says: “’Cliché’ is a song I wrote at around 2 am, in my apartment, immediately after a weekend of hanging with an ex. The song was written in about an hour, and I recorded the vocal that night (sorry neighbours). It’s my favourite song to play live, and as a singer/songwriter, I really feel like it represents the true life, not always sunny, storytelling vibe I’m trying to represent as an artist.”
Indeed, the result is something incredibly raw – a vulnerable, emotional offering, powered by Johnny’s unparalleled vocals.
Having opened for Rod Steward, and become a fixture at Hollywood’s prestigious Hotel Cafe, it’s clear the world is starting to fall for Johnny Gates, and in ‘Cliché’ it’s no mystery as to why.
