Following last year’s critically acclaimed ‘Aching Bones’ EP, Nadine Shah has found a new home with R&S Records imprint Apollo, who will be releasing her brand new ‘Dreary Town’ EP on 15 April 2013. Picking up where her debut left off, ‘Dreary Town’ continues the emergence of a significant talent.
Hailing from the north east town of Whitburn, yet London based, this young artist’s compositions lean towards the dramatic, with her smoky husky-hued vocals imbued with an understated unease, with a stage presence that belies her youthful age.
We listened to the title track from the ‘Dreary Town’ EP:
‘Dreary Town’ is a strong sensual song about tormented down-and-out London – the paving stones are wet and smelly butts lay in the gutter here – but you will also find a magical quality. The piano accompaniment is gracious, and plucked tinselling strings help you reach that other world quality. But it is the burning passion of Nadine’s peach-striped and waltzing voice that you’ll love.
