Tracey Edges – Sunday Girl<\/p>\n

Siren FM http:\/\/www.sirenonline.co.uk\/ Birds by Karl Walsh and the Happy Future<\/p>\n

For some reason I don\u2019t know why I didn\u2019t fancy this album I thought it might be too folky for me! There was nothing to make me think that. I\u2019ve no idea why! I was soooo wrong! As it is really a great mix, with elements of Folk, Indie rock and Americana and even a hint of flamenco, Along with plenty of story telling.<\/p>\n

As I\u2019m not a musician, I am very lyric lead and this album is very strong on that. I suddenly found myself rather intrigued as they mixed up the pace and the subject matter, some tracks are lively and some are much, much darker. (Monster has its theme of domestic violence.) I think it\u2019s a great song whatever the subject matter, that\u2019s why I made them my \u2018Artist of the Week.\u2019 It\u2019s a really strong album and I could easily have played any of the tracks on it. If you fancy something a bit different, straight forward but somehow edgily disturbing (which elevates it above the norm) I can highly recommend Birds by Karl walsh and The happy Future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
