CARM – “Hollywood South”
Last year, contemporary classical performer and trumpet player CJ Camerieri released his self-titled debut album as CARM. Camerieri already had quite a resume, having co-founded the ensemble yMusic and contributing horns to projects from Bon Iver, Paul Simon, the National, and Sufjan Stevens. Now, Camerieri is sharing his first new music of 2022: the standalone single “Hollywood South,” which comes ahead of his spring tour with Typhoon and European dates opening for Bon Iver.
Produced by Ryan Olson, “Hollywood South” is a high-energy fusion of layered horns, snappy percussion, and a ’70s funk groove. CARM immediately wrote it after playing his first live show as CARM. He says: “I felt the renewed energy from a crowd of music lovers. I wanted the trumpet to step forward as the lead voice of the band, and the result is a dancy plunger mute jam that I can’t wait to open these upcoming shows.”
