R. F. Coleman co-wrote “I Couldn’t Trust” with Joshua Moriarty (of Miami Horror, Telenova), and it was co-produced by Scott Horscroft (Silverchair, The Presets, DMA’s). While “I Couldn’t Trust” is Coleman’s debut as a solo musician, it’s not his first rodeo as an ‘artist’. As a writer for the New York Times and Guardian, R. F. Coleman has been shot, stabbed, poisoned with cyanide and put a hit out on himself. He’s photographed for Canon and directed award-winning short films on five continents.
Untrained, R. F. Coleman’s songs are, to put it kindly, ‘naturally raw’ (nice way of saying, naive). They talk in the abstract, as he operates in the abstract. The subject matter could be a ballerina, fish tank, self-discovery, addiction, sobriety, eloping, being a father. The process is always fun, but often frustrating (particularly for co-writer/producer, Josh). The words come quickly; the ideas erratic, desperate and not necessarily ‘correct’. That’s ok. R. F. doesn’t want it to be perfect – he just hopes you enjoy the music and experience it your own way (but not while riding a bike; please concentrate).
