Penny Bridges – Demo Review
Penny Bridges - Demos |
Release Date: Out Now
I hope Penny Bridges is a real
name rather than a nom de plume but even if it’s not this Wolverhampton singer
songwriter has picked a cracking title that is part Penny Lane and part Nash
Bridges. The three songs available on Penny’s Soundcloud kick off with ‘Gratitude’
and immediately the listener is transported to an elf inhabited woodland glade
as Bridges’ delicate guitar picking and vocals dance gracefully with each
other. For the chorus, however, a flavour of Florence + The Machine and Bat For
Lashes creeps in with booming beats and more powerful vocals.
‘You Cry Yourself Away’ is a late
night, candlelit tune that reeks of red wine, burning embers and the desire to
stay awake just so you don’t have to go to bed with only your thoughts and
regrets for company. The trio of tracks is completed by ‘Ascendancy’, a kooky
and summery tune with lightness at its heart and wanderlust in its soul. Across
three tunes, Penny Bridges has shown that she has musical ability, a stunning
voice, the gift of song crafting and an affinity with a range of genres that
make her a genuinely exciting and enthralling prospect.
