Dreamy ‘Juliet’ by Cal Maro

 

‘Juliet’ is a perfect track for winter evenings with a blanket and a cup of tea. It makes you feel safe and warm. This dreamy piece has been written by Brooklyn-bred creator Cal Maro. Artist layers soulful melodies over head-nodding grooves, mixing live and electronic production into his compositions.

Cal Maro  grew up on music, surrounded by the classics – ranging from Michael Jackson to Fleetwood Mac. Growing up with a father who played in bands, Cal saw firsthand the importance and impact of live music and got his hands on instruments at a young age. Cal has spent the past few years performing around New York, working on new material, and collaborating as a writer, producer, and engineer on projects for other artists. 

“I struggle telling stories that aren’t my own. I hadn’t successfully finished a love song since the emo ship sunk, and was slowly sinking in the LA dating quicksand…emotionless, clinging to songs about nostalgia and regret, never about love…most certainly not promising someone they would never be alone.”
