Holidays might be over, but we're going places with this ace
trio of discoveries we propose you today!
Presents for Sally. Many thanks for this one
Mike. This powerful
British trio formed in 2009, with track '
Flowers Falling Sideways' being featured on the Invada records compilation 'The Secret Garden', quickly followed that November with the praised 7" single '
Catch Your Fall'. A year later
arrived debut album '
A Touch of Joy, A Touch of Sadness' plus 7” single '
Anything Anymore'. After a couple of quiet years and a self-financed 7” single for Xmas 2014, now they are back with sophomore LP '
Colours & Changes', out now by
Saint Marie Records. A fantastic voyage to the realms of shoegaze, at times shiny, delicate and melodically blissful, others edgier and menacing.
An extraordinary present for all of us.
Camera Shy. Hailing from Oakland, California, Nick Bassett, from
Whirr and
Nothing, and former Whirr
band member Lexy Morte have joined forces on a
sweeter, brighter affair since 2014. Debut EP '
Jack-O-Lantern' arrived on June last year, out on
Run For Cover Records, followed this April with another EP, '
Crystal Clear' and a glorious self-titled album. Think on
the Softies, think on the Sundays, think on
Sarah Records. Fall in love with Alexandra Morte syrup voice. Be embraced by the warm jangly guitar lines and summery, dreamy vibes. Put yourself in front of the camera.
Don't be shy. You'll enjoy.
Tomiji. And we end in Paris to meet Thomas Guilcher,
the vocalist of our dearly loved
Pale Spectres (new songs anytime soon, please?) and one of his most exciting
solo projects. Released this June, this self-titled debut EP (that you should run to grab at
his bandcamp, what a bargain!) is a slice of indiepop heaven, Impossibly, ridiculously catchy, melodic to the bone, it looks eye-to-eye to the
The Pastels or makes you think on how
The Field Mice would sound in the new millennium, with an irresistible subtle danceable beat.
Enchanting and delightful.
