CRAIG ELLIOTT - "Lonely Outlaw" now streaming online

CRAIG ELLIOTT - "Lonely Outlaw"
Dark-cabaret-fuzzpop from Amsterdam's resident Kiwi now streaming online.

From the abandoned theme park where Craig Elliott had once invited you to visit echoes an eerie melody one may expect from a dilapidated carousel as it spins around and around with no one in sight. Such are the visuals that "Lonely Outlaw", Elliott's latest single, seem to evoke - with a sense of grandiosity burgeoning in relation to his forthcoming release.

The macabre track, that we've for some reason dubbed as "Brechtianpunk", isn't a huge move away from the previous works of the Amsterdam based New Zealand musician - "The Whole In The Wall Gang" video touched upon Elliott's somewhat underlying fascination with juxtaposing the innocence of a funfair and Vaudeville with the dark subtext of his work. "Abandoned Theme Park" perhaps not so subtle by contrast (and we've still yet to get a take-down notice for that - apart from Merlin, but all industry in-joking aside...)
