Down In The City
Bob McCarroll’s new EP Down In The City is a bold and soulful exploration of sound, style, and spirit. Blending the gritty edge of rock, the fluid sophistication of jazz, and the heartfelt emotion of blues, McCarroll steps into new musical territory — experimenting and evolving while staying true to his core as a songwriter and guitarist.
With smooth, evocative vocals and sensitive guitar work, McCarroll threads these genres together with ease, creating a sound that’s uniquely his own. Each track feels like a new corner of the city — alive with rhythm, nuance, and character — reflecting an artist unafraid to cross boundaries and blur lines.
The journey ends with “Oh, Jesus,” a raw and reflective blues piece that delivers a powerful closing statement. In it, McCarroll captures a universal truth: that at some point, we all reach for something higher, something sacred — whatever form that may take.
Down In The City is more than an EP. It’s a musical map of discovery — of self, of sound, and of the stories that live between the notes.
