We have developed a close affinity to American troubadour JB Elwood. Writing about ‘Visiting Hour’ back in April, we proudly declared it “a wholesome and heartwarming piece”, something that seems to have become a signature move of the Texan artist. Yet, while the project is steeped in the great American tradition, it’s true that Elwood also looks confident in the present day, reminding us of icons such as John Mayer and Chris Martin. Blending country, pop and rock influences, JB delivers charming nuggets of relatability and introspection, instantly conquering any like-minded listeners.
‘Caught Up in You’ adventures into the same pastures, this time pursuing a more evocative, emotional livery. Blessed by Elwood’s towering, expressive vocals, the record feels catchy and anthemic, delivering a malleable nugget of wholesome pop rock, all steeped in fleeting romance and honest vulnerability. Part nostalgic and part hopeful, ‘Caught Up in You’ describes a soul-stirring night drive, one where untold feelings become more and more obvious.
As JB explains: “This song is about that rare kind of night—the kind that changes you. It’s a love story told in motion, where the car becomes a vessel for emotional connection, and intimacy grows with every mile.” Produced by Andrew Middleton, ‘Caught Up in You’ is a wonderful effort, once again showcasing JB Elwood’s cultural relevance and relentless talent.
