Babygirl – Overbored

| Babygirl - Overbored |
Release Date: Out Now
Babygirl are yet another act off
the Canadian production line of exciting new acts as this Toronto twosome slide
casually in to view and in to your hearts. ‘Overbored’ is the most sleepy-eyed
anthem of doneness that there could ever be as singer Kirsten Clark sings
sweetly about her boredom levels with her already dead relationship atop some
thudding drums and the kind of guitars that you only normally hear on 80s
soundtracks to B-Movie thrillers. Elements of Best Coast, Sleigh Bells the
morning after the night before and any number of 90s slacker bands at their
most downbeat (Pavement, Veruca Salt, Lemonheads) are all brought to mind and
none of those are bat things. A word of respect should be given to the video’s
director David Bedford and to Babygirl themselves for an absolutely adorable
and enthralling video that was done in one take, dance moves and all. I said
after the whole Brexit debacle that I might well want to leave the UK in the
coming years but that a good music scene is a must for my future home – Canada continues
to put up a strong case.
