BRIMMING with brio, charm and musicality, the Merseyside all-girl group have recorded a second album just as good as their acclaimed debut Sound Of Requiem.
Helen Holmes, who plays funky, rootsy and jazzy bass, gives elegant ballast to the guitars and vocals of sisters Danni Gibbins and Beth Reed-Gibbins. The original trio line-up has been augmented by Kat Gilmore on violin. Her playing on Seven Weeks Of Strip Poker suggests Stefan Grappelli.
The folk/roots band’s vocal harmonies come to the fore in Love Is A Duel, while other highlights include the Dylanesque title track, Pretty Eyes and Heineken Keg, the spontaneous drinking song that ends the album.
