Introducing Singer/Songwriter Cap Carter | Debuts the Refreshing ‘Relapse’

Born in Manila, the western Sydney raised Cap Carter has released his debut single and visual, “Relapse.”

Building a global and dedicated fan base with his original music and honest storytelling, Cap stands out for his distinctive and authentic vocals. Writing through his own personal and lived experiences, Cap works a fusion of R&B soul with an edge and grit that is unique and refreshing. Having already shared a stripped back DIY performance of “Relapse,” today’s release is a fresh new version recorded in Sydney.

Growing up in a broken home and moving into one of the roughest parts of Sydney, “Relapse” was written during one of Cap Carter’s darkest periods.

“If you got something to say, then say it now
Ain’t no point in dragging this thing around”

“Relapse is a story of addiction. Through rehab, I’ve learnt that my addiction stems from childhood trauma – specifically the day Ma left and the years spent thereafter. The music video is quite literally a look at the days leading up to the breakdown of my parent’s marriage and the day that would come to forever change my life.”

Cap continued; “I wanted the story to be told in such a delicate way that it would respect both of my parents and not in anyway dishonour my family. From the start, I knew that if we couldn’t achieve this then we shouldn’t touch on this particular chapter of my story.”

Filmed in Sydney, the official video is directed by Maddy King, who took Cap Carter’s personal story and through her creative genius created something contemporary, modern and evocative.
