Track: Beau Diako releases the sweet indie / R&B of ‘Animal’

Following on from his 2019 debut, British producer, songwriter and guitarist Beau Diako has released a new track Animal, which grew out of a jam session in L.A. with South Cali native COCO providing vocals.

Of the track, Beau says “Animal” was made earlier this year with some friends in LA and a new love for the nylon string guitar. The structure was mostly finished in one day and Coco later arrived to start adding some beautiful melodies on top, all within minutes of meeting him. I took it back to England to finish and now it’s probably the first song I’ve released within only a few months of its creation”

Animal has this bubbling R&B Sheen about it, the threads of the guitar lines intermingling with chiming glockenspiel, sweeping strings and this short stabbing accompaniment, over which Coco lays down this soulful jam that sticks in your brain. Check it out, here
