CLINTON WASHINGTON, “Frozen”
When I write an initial blog post about a performer, it’s with every intent on sticking with him or her to see what’s next. As readers of this blog know, Little Rock native Clinton Washington’s recent single “Hearts Beat Loud” is one of my current favourites (it will forever be a companion song to Adele’s “Hello” for me). “Frozen” also looks to rank right up there too, featuring an equally remarkable vocal performance that makes it seem like Clinton has been performing songs like this well beyond his young years. “The Voice” Season 8 contestant not only has superlative range but the control in his voice that’s needed to bring a song back into perspective. “Frozen” glides by so easily, laden with emotion, that you cannot help but want more from Clinton Washington. The gracefully directed video brings out the stark feelings of loneliness and isolation without leaving you in a puddle on the floor. You can pick it up on iTunes as one of the songs on his recent album release called Clinton.
