Jfarrari hits all the right chords on his stellar debut single, "Timeline"
Review by Austin Sher
Josh Farrar, also known as Jfarrari, has finally released his debut single, “Timeline” that we’re absolutely loving! Please do yourself a favor and read along for our full review of the track, in addition to a background and profile on the artist.
For those who may be unaware, Jfarrari is aSouthern California-based musician currently residing in Orange, California. With several years of experience as a punk rock guitarist and vocalist, the artist is combining the energy of punk rock with elements of 2000’s indie synth-pop and modern surf rock into his music. It’s quite the refreshing twist on modern alternative music and may just fall into the “new wave indie” genre. Needless to say, it kicks ass and we need more of it as soon as possible.
The artist’s influences span across a variety of decades and genres alike. Artists such as The Strokes, Tame Impala, Joy Division, The Beatles, Kid Cudi, and the Arctic Monkeys have all inspired him to write and share his work with others, as well as strive to improve his craft. Following this release, he plans on releasing new music and content consistently and meaningfully to continue to build his following. His next single, “Reborn” was actually just released on all streaming platforms this past Friday, October 2nd.
Other than the fact that “Timeline” is a beautiful mashup of all the artists he listed as influences, we don’t know what else to say other than we’re digging what the artist has crafted here. With rolling basslines, a classic indie vocal delivery, and a culmination of indie’s best artist’s, we’re ecstatic to know that Josh is putting his creativity to the best use possible. As mentioned, his newest single, “Reborn”, was just released this past week and is a must listen as well.
As lovers of all things indie, we tend to have higher expectations for music we’re more familiar with. So when our first listen finished, it was honestly kind of a shock as to how much we enjoyed it. We don’t say that as a “dig” to the artist, more of a super compliment in which we want more songs just like this. Coming in at just over 4 minutes, you’re hooked from the beginning and it really only gets better from there. If you can spare the time out of your day, which you should, we’re highly recommending and encouraging you to listen!
While we’re at the beginning of Jfarrari’s career, we can already tell he’s going to flourish. If this is the type of music he’s cranking out as a debut, the sky is truly the limit. For all things Jfarrari’s to listen to “Timeline”, and to keep up with all things new, please check out the following links below.
