Coming back to the music scene in splendid, scintillating fashion after a dozen years, Jim Verraros releases a magnificent return to sexy form with ‘Take My Bow’ today. He was recently crowned a Dazzler of the Day here, and upon listening to the new track it is apparent that Verraros still dazzles. ‘Take My Bow’ picks up where his last album ‘Do Not Disturb’ left off, then charts new territory by obliterating the boundaries of modern dance-pop. With its skittering beats and deliciously-sinister bass-line, ‘Take My Bow’ is the sultry slice of exuberant inspiration that Verraros has been providing since 2005; in many unheralded ways he paved the road for the likes of Sam Smith and Troye Sivan. ‘Take My Bow’ ranks right up there with the most striking releases of unabashedly queer music this year.
Based on the single, and some of the promotional artwork for this venture (see below), Verraros still knows how to put on a show. (Check out ‘Take My Bow’ on Spotify here.)
