Thoughts on music

This blog is intended to do "exactly what it says on the tin" so below are some of my 'Thoughts on Music'. They predominantly concern recent matters but will not always do so. I'll also happily turn to matters of the music industry more generally if and when I feel so inclined. So there! If you don't agree with something please feel free to add a comment. They are moderated by me (so I'll get to read it) and I might even reply. Above all however just enjoy whatever music you like! Richard

New Music 2015 - Part 15 - Evi Vine - Give Your Heart To The Hawks

If the number of people that find themselves on these pages while searching for Evi Vine and her 2011 début LP 'And So The Morning Comes' is any guide, her soon to be released follow-up 'Give Your Heart To The Hawks' should be something of a winner. It is released 21 February in the UK on 12", CD and d/l.

Early indications are that it will not disappoint. My wish, since I have pre-ordered the LP, would be to see her play live at a festival this summer.
Like its predecessor I suspect that there will be little in the way of froth and poppy circumstance to be found; much, however, for the lovers of melancholy and mystery. That is not to say that I don't like a good dose of pop, for I do, but that is in the capable hands of others - Charli XCX being just one example that I might mention.

Choose your poison.
