Premiere: Dave C. Rupert – ‘Taunt’

The sound of potential being realised...

For a while there wasn't much Dave C. Rupert material online.

The songwriter wanted to keep things low key, completing support slots Jake Bugg and Matt Corby while maintaining a close grip on his material.

Now he feels ready to share it with the world. Dave C. Rupert will release his debut EP later in the year, a showcase for his rapidly blossoming talent.

New track 'Taunt' is a thrilling introduction, with that delicious word-play picking apart failures in a relationship.

Driven by a solid, openly emotive vocal, the deft arrangement may be simple but it contains some marvellous subtleties.

Dave C. Rupert explains: “I guess it's a song about being a jealous/paranoid boyfriend and dealing with long distance relationships badly”.
