Simplicity and repetition are the hallmarks of Liverpool’s Bird (Facebook). Simple rhythms, Leonard Cohen-esque nostalgic melancholy and a voice in 22 year old Adele Emmas (no not that Adele) that brings a haunting depth to each of two songs I can currently find.
The songs build, they float on her voice with violins and sweeping percussion sculpting an almost medieval sinister bleakness.
