| Phoebe Robinson - Daytime T.V. / From The Ash |
Release Date: Out Now
I’m not going to make any mustard
or Partridge references but suffice to say Phoebe Robinson is from Norwich –
not the musical mecca that some might expect such a talent to hail from. The
wondrous folk at Foof Records have unearthed Ms Robinson and this double A-side
single is an absolute delight. ‘Daytime T.V.’ is a delicately woozy number with
all manner of samples, melodies and sounds swirling around like the
possibilities laid out in front of a young and hopeful optimist. Vocally, this
is as close to the criminally underrated Zoe Johnston as it’s possible to get
and that fits musically as well if you consider the work ZJ did with Bent back
in the day. ‘From The Ash’ is more angelic and pure, like a crisp morn in the
countryside where only a curious robin moves on the immediate horizon. Robinson’s
voice is clear and icy cool as the gentle, rippling guitar provides the early
morning warmth of a slept in blanket and you would be hard pushed not to fall
in love with Robinson as her Marling-esque phrasing turns in to a chaotic and
semi-cacophonic crescendo. In the space of two songs, Phoebe Robinson has
entirely enthralled me and I would urge you all to take the opportunity to grab
yourself a free download from the link below – I know I have.
