TINY Ruins had come all the way from New Zealand to play The Band Room on the North York Moors, whose beauty would surely have made singer and songwriter Hollie Fullbrook feel at home.

It turned out Hollie was closer to home than her accent would have suggested. Her father and her grandmother, Nana Joan, were both in the audience, living as they do "up here" . Hollie had been brought in Bristol before moving to Auckland, and her experiences in both cities inform her second album, Brightly Painted One.

Released earlier this year, it is yet another mighty fine release from that arbiter of impeccable taste, Simon Raymonde at Bella Union, and the songs bear all the hallmarks of his label. Lovely melodies, a little mystery, a voice that seems to have been here forever, Hollie's guitar accompanied by Cass Player's bass and harmony vocals and Alexander Freer's undemonstrative drumming.

Hollie played two sets, the first supposed to be quieter than the second, but it was more a case of degrees of quiet. Both albums were well represented; Old As The Hills, Just Desserts and Adelphi Apartments were among the night's high points from her debut, Some Were Meant For The Sea, while Me At The Museum, You In The Wintergardens, She'll Be Coming 'Round and Ballad Of The Hanging Parcel, a recollection of a night of derring-do on her Bristol roof, stood out from this year's record.

Holes In My Pockets made a welcome appearance from her Haunts EP, and Hollie treated the full house to not one but two Bob Dylan covers in Band Room convention, giving a newly revealing female reading to I Dreamed I Saw St Augustine and Sarah.

Never mind that the night's promised harvest moon was hidden by clouds. A new star had shone in Low Mill instead: Hollie Fullbrook.
