Los Angeles based multi-instrumentalist Evan Voytas is gearing up to release his debut LP, Feel Me, on Dovecote on January 24th. The album's lead single, the twinkly "Can't Let Anybody Know Who You Are," combines Evan's dreamy falsetto with a synth-jazz blend. Voytas explains that the track was inspired by life in Los Angeles: "I wrote this song here in L.A. I feel like L.A. has a hazy, mystical quality to it. People appear and disappear, reappear as someone else. This song documents that phenomenon," he says. "I like to hide out. I like to embrace mystery rather than be explicit about things. I like people who I can't understand, who never settle on an identity."

Evan Voytas' debut, Feel Me, will be available on January 24th, but you can download "Can't Let Anybody Know Who You Are" for free here.

“Helen Wheels”

Paul McCartney | 1973

A rollicking good-time hard rocker, "Helen Wheels" was not about a woman but about Paul McCartney's Land Rover, the anthemic chorus voicing the vehicle's reckless joy as "she" took to the road. The song was added to the U.S. version of Band on the Run but was issued only as a single in McCartney's native U.K. "I like that because it's a British road song and there's not many of those around," said McCartney. "It's always Route 66. But Carlisle? How many songs have got Carlisle in them?"
