Chuck Timely & The Hourglass [CD]

The album deals with the fear that time is running out, with past mistakes, unfulfilled hopes and the longing for a future that may never seem attainable. At the center is Chuck Timely, not a classic alter-ego figure, but an independent character who embodies the themes of the album. Charming, elusive and timeless, Chuck moves between nostalgia and the present, as someone who leaves an impression everywhere, seems familiar and yet remains unattainable. Visually, the character moves between classic vintage aesthetics, nostalgic iconography and deliberately chaotic lo-fi and grunge elements. It is precisely this tension between transience, longing and love that characterizes the entire album, which musically revolves around time pressure, coming to terms with the past and regret.
