Christon – Closer To A New Day
Two years ago, when I just started this blog, one of the first tracks I recommended was the then-new single Perfect World by Dutch singer-songwriter Christon Kloosterboer. Later in 2017, he released the EP’s Towns and Cities. In 2018, however, he mainly composed and produced for other (EDM) artists. Also, he released tracks under clever anagram aliases like North [Sic] and Sir Notch. The latter, especially, is well-known to the Carte Blanche Music readers, as his summery single Gimme That Sunshine ended up third in Your Favourites (2018).
For 2019, the artist dusted off his proper name. Throughout the year, he will release new songs as Christon. Closer To A New Day, a track he wrote in Nashville with Emery Dobyns, is the first of them. It’s about a boy and a girl who drive off in their car at sunset, leaving their troubles behind, heading for the sun. An epic song that references Coldplay, both musically and in voice.
Don’t be surprised if this ends up in a movie, TV series or commercial one day.
