| Ryn - Confide EP |
Release Date: Out Now
Right, there's definitely
something in the water in Exeter and I'm slightly surprised that the music
industry hasn't picked up on it yet. What we have here is yet another
extraordinarily talented female singer-songwriter from the capital of Devon in
the shape of the intriguingly named Ryn. The first track on this EP is
'Familiar Mirror' (not the easiest two words to say together) and the immediate
feeling that what we have here is a song that has been carefully and delicately
crafted. The gentle guitar notes and quietly powerful voice of Ryn are like the
morning sunshine streaming in through a dusty kitchen window to breathe life in
to a once still and cold scene. 'Thick Skin' is another example of that song
craft but with a more downbeat vibe as Ryn turns her voice to a more Jazzy,
husky tone and you instantly want to wrap yourself up in the song and stare at
the rain while you sip on a hot chocolate.
As 'Hope' begins the spindly
piano melody and waltzing guitar strum transport you to a Parisian cafe where
Ryn would be idly serenading passersby from behind a black coffee and dark
glasses necessitated by a red wine hangover. This all too brief collection
closes with the optimistic and spirited 'Strong' which has a more Joni Mitchell
feel to it with a power of emotion that is rarely heard these days in music
these days. Ryn's voice is utterly beautiful and versatile which is enough in its
own right to keep me interested. However, what is truly wondrous about this
artist is that she has the imagination and sheer guts to take on and conquer so
many different styles within just one four track collection. Bravo, bravo
indeed.
