New Audio: South of France Teams up with BIg Samir and CRL CRRLL on Woozy and Swaggering “Something That You Said”

Led by Denver-based singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer Jeff Cormack,  South of France is an indie pop project that sees Cormack and his collaborators specializing in a groovy, beat-driven take on escapist, vacation pop.

South of France has had material featured in smash-hit TV shows like Bojack Horseman and Shameless — and they’ve received praise from American SongwriterNPRRolling Stone and others. Adding to a growing profile, South of France has opened for a number of acclaimed acts including Portugal The Man, Young The GiantFlaming LipsMichigander and a lengthy list of others. 

Cormack’s latest South of France single “Something That You Said” is a lysergic and blissed out bit of pop featuring a supple and propulsive bass line, skittering hi-hat driven drum patterns, spaced out and atmospheric synths and electronics paired with incredibly catchy hooks. The production serves as a lush and woozy bed for Big Samir and CRL CRRLL to trade swaggering bars and dreamily soulful falsetto vocals.

While sounding like a mischievous take on Tame Impala, “Something That You Said” will appear on Cormack’s forthcoming album My Spirit Animal, My Baggage, an album that’s one part solo album, one part collaborative effort with a series of vocalists, emcees and more. “‘Something That You Said,” as Cormack says “is a great example of how fun these collaborations are getting. Everyone is really having fun with these songs and I’m really enjoying pushing the production into new places while keeping it fun and trying not to over complicate it.”
