Our boutique record label, The Confidence Emperors, releases the new John Orpheus single and video House of Cards today. It is John’s unique AfroPop version of the Radiohead song from their In Rainbows album. On what inspired him to interpret House of Cards, he says, “The lyric of the chorus is really the soul of the tune: ‘Forget about your house of cards and I’ll do mine.’ It implies the difficulty, the near impossibility of trust in new relationships. The incredible exposure we put ourselves through for them and the leap of faith required to fully surrender to the promise of love.”
The single was produced and mixed by our very own Mike Schlosser. You can check out House of Cards here:
