Before releasing his debut single, Carlos Del Solar traversed other disciplines—photography, creative direction, modeling. It feels almost predestined that he would, in true Renaissance man fashion, create music as well. In fact, you have likely already had a taste of his musical POV from his time songwriting for Orville Peck.
But here is something different: “Nothing Goin’ On” is a warm, lyrically clever exploration of a journey and its denouement. Del Solar’s vocals tell the story with subtlety and an undercurrent of chaos, evocative of weathered balladeers like Townes Van Zandt and Lou Reed. A true turning point anthem.
