reviews
Dreaming Forward with Caper Clowns' Irresistible Spark
Caper Clowns return with a technicolor burst of optimism in their new single Behind The Waterfall (Ayayahoo), a track that feels like a warm breeze on the first day of spring. It’s playful, heartfelt, and effortlessly infectious. The band has always had a knack for crafting melodic pop-rock with emotional depth, and this time, they’ve upped the joy factor without losing their charm.
What makes this track particularly special is the spontaneity behind it. According to frontman Rick Kingo, the song came together almost magically and that energy shines through in every beat. There’s a palpable sense of freedom in the way each member broke their usual roles, with Peter stepping in on drums for the first time in a decade and Rasmus weaving in the distinct flavor of the Irish bouzouki. The result? A jangly, buoyant anthem that refuses to dwell in the past.
Kingo’s vocals ride atop a sparkling wave of electric guitar and synths, while the backing vocals add that extra splash of sunshine. But the track isn’t just about catchy hooks, it carries a message of forward motion, of shaking off the weight of “what was” and stepping into “what could be.”
With Behind The Waterfall (Ayayahoo), Caper Clowns remind us it’s never too late to dream big and to have a blast while doing it.
