Common Saints

Common Saints creates a sonic world that feels both vintage and futuristic, a place where the warmth of 1970s soul meets the expansive possibilities of modern psychedelic production. The music is defined by its incredible sense of space; every instrument feels like it has room to breathe, yet they all come together in a dense, multi-layered tapestry of sound. It is the kind of music that feels physically warm, like sunlight hitting your skin on a cool afternoon.

What truly sets this project apart is the meticulous craftsmanship of Charlie Perry. His background as a high-level producer for artists like Jorja Smith is evident in the flawless mix, but here he allows himself to indulge in long, liquid guitar solos and complex vocal stacking that might be too 'weird' for mainstream pop. There is a spiritual, grounded quality to the songwriting that avoids the clichés of typical R&B, opting instead for a more philosophical and elemental perspective.

Start with the 'Idol Eyes' EP to experience the core of the Common Saints sound. It perfectly encapsulates the blend of soulful grooves and psychedelic exploration that makes the project so addictive. From there, dive into 'Cinema 3000' for a more expansive, long-form journey through Perry's cinematic imagination.
