Sykes - Gold Dust
Sykes - Gold Dust |
Release Date: 14th July 2014
Unsigned London trio Sykes have a
new single coming your way in the form of 'Gold Dust' and I think you might
just like it. If you imagine the likes of Foals or the Maccabees with the dance
elements of Delphic and the pop savvy of Bombay Bicycle Club then you're
getting close. The guitars ping like raindrops on a lake of electro melodies
while the simple but effective beats chip away in the background. The piece de
resistance, though, is the voice of front woman Julia which swoops and soars
with the best of them but she also has character to her voice that puts her in
a league with the likes of Kimbra or Alison Goldfrapp. There is definitely
something a little bit special about these guys and I'd love to see them
recreate this sound live so I'll be keeping an eye out for some Westcountry
gigs....hint hint.
