FROZEN HOUSES – SINGLE REVIEW

Frozen Houses – Tax & Tarmac 
Frozen Houses - Tax & Tarmac


Release Date: Out Now

This is the last single from Cornish based Frozen Houses before the debut album gets released in 2018 so this can be considered an early Christmas present for all you good little boys and girls out there. ‘Tax & Tarmac’ is a sweet little nugget of sub-three-minute indie-pop that packs a lot in to its short life from loose guitar riff and morose vocals that open proceedings to the harmonies and steady pop beat that keeps the party moving. There’s a beautiful understated vocal harmony between male and female voices that walks the line between Badly Drawn Boy and Belle & Sebastian with determined uncertainty. Throw in some gorgeous guitar licks, some violin and the kind of build that Arcade Fire would kill for and you’ve got yourself a pretty damn decent track. Now let’s just see this year out and wait for that album in 2017.


Live Dates:

15th December – The Liskeard Tavern, Liskeard
5th January – Lusty Glaze Beach, Newquay
18th February – Rod & Line Inn, Tideford

23rd February – B-Bar, Plymouth
